i thought i saw you walking
between the morpheus trees
the leaves in autumn auburn
dancing in their descending
to lay themselves at your feet
as welcome, your charity
each soft step kissing the earth
i gave chase, for what it's worth
but i turned one way, and you
another, leaving no trace
and now this place keeps secrets
of stories that could have been
and now all but a few leaves
remain unfallen, and i
deep in the still and quiet
patient, await their return
i thought i saw you walking
between the morpheus trees
with a little luck, next time
it will be you seeing me
