I Was Certain
the chill of autumn’s breeze
whispers through the rustling leaves
the last of summer’s songbirds warble
warnings of the coming freeze
~ I was certain I’d enjoy the silence ~
the great flocks have long taken flight
my synesthetic heart, barely alight
a rainbow fire that once filled the sky
but a cipher in the grey winter blight

A change of seasons with a change of heart. You have put together some wonderful imagery in a splendid puente. The idea of a ‘synesthetic heart,’ is brilliant.
