** Promise of Return **

Autumn speaks in murmurs now,
in the turning of leaves, the quiet fall,
the earth rests beneath a blanket of gold,
and she senses the call to calm.

There is beauty in this retreat,
in the rhythm of gently slowing down,
to a place where deep reflection flows,
and the heart learns to wear its crown.

For she knows the promise of return,
how the soil cradles the seeds of spring,
and the fragile autumn light, so tender and still,
will rise again, as sweet birds softly sing.
