Chlorophyll surrenders, and
Royal Red Maple foliage sways its way onto the shimmering water beside my cabin.
A crimson canopy parts to allow sunlight a dappling on my doorstep at dawn.
Autumn proudly stands its ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A Quaking Aspen trembles in even the most well-intentioned breeze,
and bequeaths a quilting of gold to my pond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dewdrop tears cling to blue reeds stooping over my sun-lit water.
Morning mourns the moon.
\u201cShe returns tonight,\u201d reassuring ripples whisper. \u201cI promise to hold her
until you return to say your goodbye.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
