Autumn's Dance

Heaven delighted me with another day, For my witness is my breath. How I can see it move with misty background. I daze to see what become of the season. Air pocket found in the cool horizon. I can feel the kiss playing with my hair. My eyes find no trickery, Colors yielding landmark green to orange-red. Smiling thought; "Why not?" I asked, "May I." My feet planted firm upon this earth, Yet not rooted. I desire to be in the motion. Arms forward, Hands gripped to the invisible. "Merciful God. May I request a song from above?" "I only ask, for I dream a dance with autumn."
