pit-a-pat is gone

Rat-a-tat and pit-a-pat!
‘Pon my word!
Pit-a-pat and rat-a-tat!

Loudest I’ve heard!

His noise shocking!.
Thrashing the habitat.
His visage mocking....

Harvest Door

Indian summer sighs a shy farewell
Days pit-a-pat
To a door
Closing 
Shut
~
Fall
Knocking
Quietly
In harvest moons
While frost blows air kisses through the keyhole.

Harvest Moons

Indian summer’s green corn moon
Sighs a shy farewell – adieu -
Days pit-a-pat through a slowly closing door.

Amber autumn quietly knocks
In harvest hunter barley moons -
Frost blows air kisses through the keyhole.

You still got it
Got it like that
My heart still goes pit-a-pat
Chills all down my spine
Whenever you're around
I look into your eyes
And I'm hypnotized 
The butterflies inside says
You still got it
Got it like that
Listen to my heart
It is going pit-a-pat
Pit-a-pat
Cuz, you still got it
Got it like that...
