Fall is upon us
Leaves are falling everywhere and each of them has something profound to share
They cover the entire ground as the angels’ moves discretely around examining
Every vein, stem and pores that transport water to heaven. Fall comes once a year,
creating litter in the street and stirring up the heat.
Fall is lingering in the breeze filling the earth with urgency and speed, I examine the
Rise and setting of the sun and there are several businesses that are currently undone.
The rose bud had been there from my youth, and the children need a new pair of shoe
There is still no food in the pantry, and every household is facing a growing economy
Inflation is screaming at the backdoor and the interest rate is asking for more.
Fall is upon us and winter is walking around in boots getting ready to step on your
Shoes; it parades up and down the road spreading music in the street as the people
are moving back and forth in the tumultuous heat.
The cactus blooms every, one hundred years for it has something special to share,
and when it blooms the reindeer always shows up at noon.
You mingle every day in nature, searching for your lost lover. You search from morning
till night and only the footprint in the mud tells you that it will not return anytime soon
it is resting somewhere in paradise.
Fall is upon us and winter is waiting on the bus. The driver is holding the steering wheel
and a crowd has descended upon the scene and surround the bus with a violent zeal.
They demand that winter get off the bus and take refuge on top of the hill and wait for the
Universe to be still.
I took a stroll on top of the mountains to converse with the heavens,
everything was clear that there was enormous suffering happening, above and beyond the
Hemisphere, and there was nothing that you and I could do about it for the universe was
selling hot dogs for profit. It is this time of the year when things are winding down and
my “bow” is looking to buy a new home.
Fall is upon us and I cannot find anyone that I can trust, it’s time to get on the bus.
