If Leaves Were Meant For Lickin
On all the coloured trees of Fall
flick coloured leaves of past's recall.
Below the pressured cool blue skies
to light the Heaven's heart and eyes.
Where warm winds rise above the Earth
to bloom above in carried birth.
Between the rays of heated light
the sun protects both day and night.
That smaller leaves should form their buds
unfolded from their birth.
In time to spread their worn out lives
and fall back down to Earth.
And Dew Worms rush to make them mulch.
in flavors for the pickin.
Where Autumn's waste comes crawler's taste
if leaves were meant for lickin.
