Drip
The crystal water goes
Drop
Of off the red leaf upon an oak
Drip
Into a lonely puddle down under
Drop
Sends limpid ripples into the not so still water
A nod
in pear
tree leaves
me Autumn
when she
sleeps there
and coo
awake her
dream with
dice roll
in her
head but
laughter was
her thighs
as she
jumps into
her car

my shoulders curl inward
like a brittle winter leaf
I crackle as I stretch my limbs
and I turn ever smaller
over time

We change and we fall,
We change when it’s fall, brown, red
Crumpled and stepped on.

love is like that water flowing down in a river of this life
and I'm just another leaf fallen in it
In a believe it'll carry Me
to where it meets You.

Demur nature's forces and prehend a leaf
The wind is an experienced pitcher and a fan, may I ask are you?
As the leaf drifts in the draught, catch this one, we'll have a laugh over a draught
The dimensions and weight of the frond will have your senses to and thro'
Importance of equanimity is essential, do not blink, and for goodness sake do not hit that tree
A few numerous attempts to catch that elusive bract, you're out of breath
However, even though nature's force is cunning, she'll give your breath back
Now the leaf is at knee level, baseball slide, football tackle, or hockey dive, ready your hands
The stiple's erratic motion is bewildering as the tension of the chance arise's
And just as nature and yourself breath out the prehend fall's in the pond with a graceful landing
I have never caught a leaf on purpose, have you?

how many leaves
does it need to fall
to bring you Autumn?
