               seasons’ cadence

As the first hints of Autumn come gently,
mingling with late-Summer scents
and a touch of Winter’s breath
on the voiceless winds of such a
  lovely evening,
cast aside mortality’s heavy cloak
of infinite scheme, fear, and worry.
Walk on into the unknown immensity of
  nature and the future,
through this free and boundless moonlight,
embracing only transience and change as
the ultimate certainties.

I especially liked "Walk on into the unknown immensity of nature and the future" and "only transience and change as
the ultimate certainties". All beautifully written as usual. thank you for showing how it should be done.

I wonder if change is a certainty, The seasons change but return in the same way again and again. But there I go...thinking again when I should just be enjoying this beautiful poem.

Yes ... I can feel this, dear Bruce.

Your ability to perceive such beauty is a certainty too ... and where does it come from?

Most beautiful!

Love,
Margherita

"cast aside mortality’s heavy cloak

autumn is the perfect time to walk free and uncloaked poet
it brings a fresh, crisp edge to life

thank you for this beauty

like begets like, sir...

Summer holds like maple's winter sap
once warmed, releases...
still in the shadow of a long haul

but a moment's rendered breath
iced by winds from north
will change for long winter's pall

the darkness will harbor future...
yet hope declares, forge on
and thought of forging brings heat

for the clang of steel
the cling of hope
the skill of man to meet

all travail.
