Autumn Hearts excerpt

By: Elizabeth Kelly

Silence is here again.
No whispering trees
Not even a howl from the wind.
The river no longer laughs.
The sounds of our happiness are gone,
But I will never forget that bright autumn day

Autumn is here and you sit so close,
while I lay in eternal sleep.
The air is cool and the sounds return.
Just like you returned back to me.
Our hearts of happiness may stray far away,
But we’ll always find each other.
And we will never forget that bright autumn day.
