This wealth is fleeting, no hoarder's gain no vaults to hold, though savers might see interest building if they dared to lift the veil that masks the sight For here is treasure, boundless, free a gold to harness, hold and share as summer fades and winter comes preceded by the autumn's flair

Falls to swirls of underfoot crunching in fading warmth faux pas of summer sun the gold of autumn's wonder brings the inner child to days of fun

It heralds quite the best of change with reds and golds of treasure trove and prospect of the joy to come as through its falling leaves I rove These walks in woodland at this time as Summer's slumber takes a hold epitomise a wondrous grace bathed in these precious swathes of gold

Pale-white shrinking golden glow hovers over water slow and morning waking slumber stays as it peers slowly from the haze Whimsy holds removed I see a world at distance wistfully as summer fades to distant glow and cooler days I soon will know A curtain call as evening falls and summer into winter calls Yet tangible with treasure hold the Autumn swan-song bathed in gold

I have a mind’s eye picture of autumn here to find which I’d like to share with you and hope that you don’t mind For though it’s one of fading from a summer that’s now passed it’s also one of hope which I know is set to last Yes the winter it is coming and it will be long and cold but to the autumn’s promise throughout that I can hold For I’ve entered an agreement binding, absolute and strong of a new hope come the Springtime when I’ll sing that seasons song

Part 3 of 3 Of the sunsets I’ve seen these aspects of gold are treasures to cherish and assets to hold For each is a promise to capture and seize from the sun in the sky like a kiss on the breeze

Part 2 of 3 On the footbridge returning from a day on the beach there’s a place where I stand that’s within easy reach to envelop myself in the colours I see and gaze out in wonder as it falls around me For here there are moments to capture and hold as each sunset settles to aspects of gold

Part 1 of 3 Golden the sunshine Drips from the sky To the water below As sunsets come by And the river just glows To this golden encore As I’m caught in the moment With wonder and awe
