September Symphony

All day long the prelude played

...leading up to twilight's climax! 

The rainbow lasted quite a while...pictures don't do justice to the most vibrant rainbow I've ever seen!

Soft blended hues of green-gray-blues

Unravels a symphonic haze

Like cello-tune, yellow-maroon

Empyrean boon woos mortal gaze

Landscape sprawls rife with earth’s still-life

Nature employs Beauty’s baton

Where Maestro of mercy and love

Composes hymns to look upon

Gold-gilded leaf, dust-spangled sheaf

Heath, haloed with amethyst mist

Sun-dazzled rills, blue-bathed foothills

Amber-anointed dusk, musk-kissed

Vermilion tints and russet glints

Prelude to crowning crescendo

Tempo of rain on burnished main

Cadence of poplar, birch, willow

Percussion-plume, rainbow in bloom

Minstrels attired in grass and wood

Coral and purple, orchestral

…and Author’s assent, 'it is good'
