Autumn
Moving, always moving
Never standing
Sowing the reaping like a future value
I pace the tar on brown earth, curving sinuously
Along silver oaks and a hint of a horizon, longingly
Never sure but always hinting
Pleasurable and wanting
Soaking up the sunlit breeze, the dried leaves
Cruise along, friendly weaves
On a joyous ride--the effervescent bubbly
While He nods and nudges,
Understanding
Never standing
Sowing the reaping like a future value
I pace the tar on brown earth, curving sinuously
Along silver oaks and a hint of a horizon, longingly
Never sure but always hinting
Pleasurable and wanting
Soaking up the sunlit breeze, the dried leaves
Cruise along, friendly weaves
On a joyous ride--the effervescent bubbly
While He nods and nudges,
Understanding
