The metaphors are all suggestive of an imminent ending (nb: the first metaphor is more aptly rendered as "winter", not autumn) - of the year, of the day and of a fire. The theme of the poem is an imminent ending - that of a relationship.

The metaphors of autumn, twilight, and embers are appropriate for the poem "Sonnet 73" because they all evoke a sense of nearing the end of something, whether it be a season, a day, or a life. Just like the speaker in the poem is reflecting on his own aging and mortality, these metaphors help convey the theme of transience and the inevitable passage of time. The imagery of autumn, twilight, and embers also bring a sense of beauty and poignancy to the speaker's contemplation of his own mortality.
