  Happily on the sun or feel the rain
  Without remembering how they who went
  Ungrudgingly and spent
  Their lives for us loved, too, the sun and rain?

• Frost is but slender weeks away,
  Tonight the sunset glow will stay,
  Swing to the north and burn up higher
  And Northern Lights wall earth with fire.
  Nothing is lost yet, nothing broken,
  And yet the cold blue word is spoken:
  Say goodbye to the sun.
  The days of love and leaves are done.
