Autumntide

A beauty overlies— / Wond’rous as wide— / It is the golden glow / Of autumntide.

Autumntide is here again, / Fading leaf and falling rain, / Cloud-strewn sky and sodden plain

Appreciate the sunrises and the sunsets, the springtimes and the autumntides, the comforts of home, the handclasp of friends, the confidence of associates, the clinging love of the inner circle.
