EARTH UNDER AUTUMN

EARTH UNDER AUTUMN

Never a moment take for granted 
Now that the golden light has landed
On the Earth under Autumn
Now that the leaves are falling down

Once ‘round the Sun, a new year older
Feeling the Samhain nights grow colder
As I turn towards Winter
I can begin to feel it now

Trying to navigate changes
While Nature keeps 
Turning my pages

Thinking of friends who’ve gone before me
Slipped through the veil, I can’t ignore
That I am blessed to be breathing 
Although my heart is grieving so

Fleeting this life, but full of wonder
Seizing each day, now I’ve begun to
See the Earth under Autumn
Now that the leaves are falling down

Down, down, down, down

Never a moment take for granted
Now that the golden light has landed
On the Earth under Autumn
Now that the leaves are falling down
