The Autumn Wind

The Autumn Wind the autumn wind is free tonight! free to soar and fly tonight! clouds of hawks one-hundred meters high dance in the wind across the sky! arrows of geese at cruise-missile height dodging boomerangs in errant flight sundown's purple, orange and red frame booms in flight above my head great beams of light spiral the sky! miracles surround us, from on high a part of me aches to be free! jumps from my hand, eager to see! what lies beyond, above the trees! each throw stronger, higher, bolder! 'till time stops beating .......to pause and wonder the autumn wind is free tonight! free to soar and fly tonight! by James Marshall Goff
