Autumn

Written by: Tereza Lysakova


I walk through
the distant streets
Scattered with
the autumn leaves

I dream about you
that you'll come here
We'll be standing
under the tree

And we'll go together
hand in hand
Through the darkened
autumn streets

The cool wind just
kissed our cheeks
It breezes through
crowns of the trees

And the slopes
around us are covered
In fallen
autumn leaves

And the Sun pours out
its golden radiance
The autumn silhouettes
perform a gloomy dance

In a beautiful and nostalgic
autumn time

Author's note:
Poem Autumn is an English translation of my original poem called Podzim,
written in Czech. The poem is inspired by the Paul Verlaine's Chanson d'automne
