In the hours before autumns embrace
A soul is born to bring forth a closing embrace of vitality
The final exhale of lush, heated daylight shines upon her
Her arrival so breathtaking
The universe gifts her the name of life
In her birth, green transforms to gold
By kissing the earth with one final caress of light
Her warmth spreads and she relinquishes summer radiance to the beckoning of darkness
Ushering in the equilibrium that comes with autumnal equinox
