BURGUNDY LEAF, POETRY FOR AUTUMN
A brief entry today. One poem that I wrote, and a more visual one, by God.
Harvest Time
August sings a turbulent song
That rustles the grass as it tumbles along,
Then harvest comes to lay the fields bare,
And October weeps for the stubble there,
'Til Winter, in mercy, covers it o'er
And holds its breath for the Spring in store,
When Earth drinks joy as storm clouds sigh,
And fields sprout life as old seeds die,
And the head of grain in dust bowed down
Will rise up green, with a spiky crown.
Burgundy, Black, and Gray
