A Vision Ending in Autumn
The spirits in the wind hum a soft tune,
as they embrace the low incoming tide
Wakes formed by their invisibility,
Fiercely collapse on a near empty shore
I, succumb to the air and implore
“Empower me, Thee Spirits of the Wind”
For in autumn, a warrioress I must be,
If only for the sake of honor in my plight
As I realize my determined demise
I, as I have always been, am conquered
And it is righteous for then, only then,
can my new life be blossomed in the spring
The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.
Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
