Those Autumn Years by Y. M. Roger
Nonet Poetry writing prompt entry

Whereon gusts of days time’s chill is borne

And flow’ring maids bid blooms adieu,

Life’s  stage  is  set  to  forewarn

Of  coming winter’s  brew:

Rich with silv’ry light,

 Strong  after-taste, 

Sharp zest that

Shall not

Die
