Lo! The mounting Autumn tree Swansea green leaves
Now owners beige yellow and red brighten color
Leaves do spread separating from branches
Falling to the ground the sounds of crashing steps
Fawning spawns falling once green leaves now orange, red, brown
As you step upon this is autumns rain autumn leaves rains down

Written by James Edward Lee Sr © 2021
Night time casting shadows, all around the city
People hurry homeward, ready for the week-end
Fleeting lovers meeting, you say she looks pretty
Walking in the moonlight, something I do commend.
Starlight shining brightly, under a silver moon
Ocean breaking gently, lapping against the sand
Holding hands and strolling, two hearts singing in tune
Heartfelt loving romance, with my wife oh so grand
For those who visit Swansea
remember that it's where a legend sleeps
The Reverend Christmas Evans
the greatest preacher ever heard or seen
It is said that if you visit his graveside
and tell the man about your day
then close your eyes and kiss his headstone farewell
you will receive luck for the next few days
That is the story my Grandad told me as i'm telling it to you
so remember if you are in Swansea and down on your luck
then you know just what to do
Like autumn leaves they fall,
Scattered all around
As I sit like some tart sitting in
The window as faceless people
Pass silently by in the Swansea rain
Wrapped in their thoughts.
We talk football, how Swansea lost,
My last holiday.
I stare at the old man in the mirror
Youth long since abandoned,
The drooping mouth that once kissed,
And spoke of love.
The ritual concluded with the words
“Something for the week-end sir?”
It took me many years to
Work out what that meant.
