Notes About The Poem

The form is actually a SNOWBALL.

Fall Pantomime

fall
colored
tapestry

trees undress
one leaf at a time
east winds disperse the stress

dancing moves of a pantomime
seductively I must confess
stirs my muse already drawn to rhyme

while in the fall colored tapestry
a pageantry the trees undress
one leaf at a time

This touches on the fringe of a personification poem, so sweetly done.
