Autumn's Reign

... over me ...

Oh, my sweet dear

At last you're here

Summer's been slain

Now you may reign

Oh, my sweet dear

At last you're here

To ease my pain

And make me fain

With Autumn's rain

What a wonderful welcome you give Autumn, Jim. I sense you look forward to cooler weather with some rain to ease the arid soil. With Summer slain (what an amazing line!), Autumn now rules and I pray it is filled with the most beautiful Autumn blessings for you to enjoy. Lovely work! Thank you for sharing, Jim...

I love the days of Autumn also. A wonderful poem for the change of the season. Only bad part. Winter will come. Amazing description for the days of Autumn. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.

I love the line "Summer's been slain."
the rain in fain falls mainly on the plain heart that needs love and reassurance.
