In the first stanza, he notes that autumn and the sun are like close friends plotting how to make fruit grow and how to ripen crops before the harvest. The ripening of the crops will drop seeds, which sets the stage for spring flowers and the whole process starting over again. He tells us about the bees that think summer can last forever as they buzz around the flowers. But the poet knows better.

The second stanza describes the time after the harvest, when autumn just hangs out around the granary where harvested grains are kept. Most of the hard work has already been done, and autumn can just take a nap in the fields, walk across brooks, or watch the making of cider.

In the last stanza, the poet notes that the music of spring is a distant memory, but that autumn's music is pretty cool, too. This music includes images of clouds and harvested fields at sunset, gnats flying around a river, lambs bleating, crickets singing, and birds whistling and twittering. All of the sights and sounds produce a literal symphony of beauty.

To the poet, it's a visual perception that represents how autumn string together different elements into a symphonic season.
