Fall Into Autum
falling into autumn to find what I want
when all the trees become leafless and gaunt
and the leaves transform into titian and crimson glory
all of the stunning foliage rains down upon my crown
and pumpkins ring smilingly and orange, around my porch.
Falling into autumn watching all the trees
bowing down low as if to read
over my shoulder my book on my lap
I watched the leaf fall as if to unwrap
all of the wonders and horror's of life
that hide behind doors showing strife
in a way that shows that all the things in the world
cause everything around us and even me, a little girl
