Autumn Lullaby (Liminal Time)

The Autumn sun’s setting
But Spring will bring sunrise
It’s liminal time

These thresholds of colour
Link now and nigh
Day and night

So when there’s a fading of gold
A change from the lively to cold
All the more reason to rest in hope
It’s nighttime; we know where this goes

So sleep in the quiet
You’ll know when it’s time
To stretch to the skies

So when there’s a fading of gold
A change from the lively to cold
All the more reason to rest in hope
It’s nighttime; we know where this goes

Colour and life will have its day
This is the hour to rest while we wait
It’s hard to let light slip out of our reach
But know it’s not dead: it’s only asleep

So when there’s a fading of cold
A change from the quiet to gold
All the more reason to rise in hope
It’s daytime; we knew this is where we’d go
