At last, autumn
It's initial attempts
Repressed by stubborn summer
Announces it's arrival
Not with thunderous fanfare
Or even a loud knock
But instead a familiar breeze
Harvest moon, new weather
Majestic colored leaves surrender
Lazy hammock invites slumber
Ere I drift away in dreams
My newly contented heart
Whispers with much relief
At last, autumn
