AUTUMN SONG by RICHARD EUGENE BURTON

First Line: A KEEN WEST WIND FROM THE HILLS AWAY
Last Line: HOPES AND DREAMINGS AND DEAD DESIRES.
Subject(s): AUTUMN; DESIRE; HOPE; MEMORY; SEASONS; SINGING & SINGERS; WIND; FALL; OPTIMISM; SONGS;
A KEEN west wind from the hills away,
A rustle of curled brown leaves,
A blazon of colors, -- O Autumn day,
How Memory subtly weaves
Into your scents and leaf-lit fires
Hopes and dreamings and dead desires.
