The blazing heat of summer lingers
as if it intends to remain with us indefinitely
forever young and violent
In time, the unmistakable crisp autumn nights arrive
with gentle breezes that caress my face
in the manner of an old friend's embrace
This evening sky envelopes me in a soft cloak of surcease,
respite from the brutality of the arid day
Here in the autumnal twilight air I breath deep
and my soul knows peace for a brief, passing moment
my heart is filled with hope
that sweet autumn days will soon being their stay
