Borne on an autumn breeze
As the leaves rustle

Swirling, coughing wind;
Groaning Maple uprooted.
Winter took its toll.

Today

My heart full of joy-
My family together.
Completed at last.

Oak tree bare of leaves
From its branches the pale doves
Flee as hawks settle.

The frost disappears
Another raindrop falls

Cubs and scouts and flags
Jackdaw caws through the silence,
Trumpet sounds Last Post.

Obscuring the horizon
Mistiness rolls in

Grey skies part
Spirits lifted
A rainbow
