Fall
Stay, don’t turn away
let me see
those reds and golds
though it reminds me
I’m getting old.
Wait, please hesitate
don’t let go
hang on a little longer
I like this show.
Stop, don’t drop
your leaves of flames
well...
I guess that‘s how
you got your name.

leaves
You're lucky to have all those beautiful leaves up there, Linda. Such radiant colors they are this time of year. Too bad our palm trees don't change colors like that. Ever make big piles of leaves and jump into them? That looks like fun!
I'll send you some Neo!
I did that once for a friend in Florida...sent her some leaves...it was martha stewarts idea...
and yes i have jumped in them many times...not recently though...
thanks my firend

I think this poem is simply beautiful. Sometimes simple is classic. You captured the essence of a fall day and I enjoyed every moment of the read. Thanks Linda!
Wish I was there to celebrate the colors of fall. Happy 1st day of fall.
