The Pied Pipers Calling

In less than a year,
or seventy hence
I will wander the road which you now take.

Now the path is wild and overgrown---and I cannot pass, but in time, for me, the pied 
piper will be piping,
as for you, he is piping now.

Beckoning with fall colors
and singing of children lost.
