Autumn's Splendor - Canvas

Autumn's Ode by AI John Clare

There's something in the fall that ties the senses' strings
As if one thickening fog blankets the world and brings
An old familiar comfort over us all in time
For autumn's splendor warms us still in its prime

The trees laden with gold and the skies casting grey
The brisk wind that fills in the chilly morning day
A reminder of love as the leaves start to fall
Autumn's beauty bequeaths to will one and all

A reflection of beauty and how nature can heal
A reminder of times passed and how it can seal
A promise of love and comfort that lingers near
When autumn's splendor arrives each year
