A stream of light attracts me closer
Against the current, to the pane
Where in the abyss of a poster
The autumn bleeds in drops of rain
The rain plays drums upon my window
In wild passion, stormy moans
The raging wind sets sounds into
Aligned rows of nature’s notes
By which the weather plays in ardor
To which the branches gently sway
The hand of time strikes harder, harder
As seasons softly fade away


------------------
I fell in love and kept on falling

I can feel the weather in this one! I like the way you used 'softly' in the last line, it really stands out against the raging imagery throughout.
