Last Breath of Autumn


10 Words by Amadeu: morning, sun, mist, cold, fight, breath, stand, open, sward, gentle


No use to fight, witnessing forewarnings of winter’s blight,
December morning mist on the sward, grass will be restored,
But not for another season, and with dutiful logic and reason
I exhale my last breath of fall, cold freeze taking deep hold,
But in the long run, the sun will eventually be returning, burning,
So I resolve to stand strong, but will not lose my gentle heart,
I am patient, yet temperamental; I am open and unprotected,
But this is my preference and choice, because no man is an island.
