falls in love

🍁Autumn is the hardest season. The leaves are all falling, and they’re falling like they’re falling in love with the ground. 🍁 Andrea Gibson

I drive down Copperleaf Lane

looking at those copper leaves

falling from the poplar trees

(well, to tell the truth,

I’m not sure they’re poplars

but that fits well with my poem…

it’s called poetic license)

I see why the street is named thus, though

it is a copper way

on a copper day

Must have been named in fall

because other seasons the leaves were all

green

or absent

I love nature

reveals so much

patiently

one leaf

one name

one slow movement

at a moments time

and words can always find the rhythm and the rhyme

🍁

Amy Lloyd

Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away;

Lengthen night and shorten day;

Every leaf speaks bliss to me,

Fluttering from the autumn tree.

I shall smile when wreaths of snow

Blossom where the rose should grow;

I shall sing when night’s decay

Ushers in a drearier day.

🍂
