Autumn splendour fragrant hues
dreams of distant plights
Wishful thinking for the gift
I search for day and night.

A precious heartfelt memory
seemingly far away
And yet I cannot reach the wish
for which I humbly pray.

What is this gift more precious than
all that I could hope for,
I search and dream and wish and hope
but find no rich reward.

Seasons come and seasons go
and soon winter arrives
The Autumn, Spring and Summer have
swiftly passed us by.

Pausing in the twilight where
I look back and reflect,
My life's seen many seasons but
none what I'd expect.

I stopped searching long ago
for that precious gift,
It brought me nothing but heartache
when all I did was wish.

Then autumn splendour reflecting
reached into my heart
And there I found my precious gift
which had always been a part.

To think I'd wasted so much time
searching for that gift
When all along it was within
the heart with which I wished.
