Fading Eminence MAG
Fading Emminence
Cold September, brighter find,
set flame to my world.
And caress the leaves with your chill,
and change them to eminence before they fall away.
Will I have found glory before I die?
no, for I will not have made a difference in this world.
Can I count the falling leaves? Could I count the stars?
out of this human race, will I be the one remembered?
Will I have outshined the rest?
Cold like the moon, and faceless too,
that's how I'll be when they lay me to rest.
A whirl of leaves, a blur of faces,
No one will remember me.
by J. C., Spencer, MA
