It's Writer's Digest's November PAD Challenge. Today's Prompt: Matches
The match that lit the hills a-fire
In autumn’s ruddy glow
Is snuffed by chill November’s ire
Exhaled in rain and snow
Leaf-lullaby and willow-sigh
Falls to the garden path
The quiet reaches to the sky
In autumn’s aftermath
The lamp-lighter of verdant tress
Wanders the stricken hill
As sky-lines flaunt the nakedness
Of autumn’s waning will
The bully breeze has snuffed the gold
The match of autumn’s lilt
Is buried in the burnished hold
Where its leaf-tear is spilt
