Seasonal Alouette

Autumn enters now,
cleansing every bough.
Leaves start tumbling to the ground,
caught in spiral whorl,
patterned in a swirl.
Still falling without a sound.

Above, limbs are bare.
Coldest air they'll share.
They'll stay that way until spring.
Fighting with the cold,
waiting to behold.
When the birds begin to sing.

top left hand side of page under 'member area' and 'my outboxes' just go in and edit a comment or delete it - I tend to do this when i post a comment for one person and it pops up on another comment above it - but make sure you copy the comment so you can post it for the right person:-) Hugs jan xx
