Love sumyannawrites.wordpress.com poetry!! Wanted to share this beautiful piece esp with Autumn 🍂 blowing in!! Hope you enjoy !
In the autumn sunshine,
wind whistles
through the eaves of trees
and leaves continue
their lusty dance
full of life and longing.
You can hear them rattle
against graying branches
until at last,
they are set free.
They wander the hillside
in masses
twirling, twisting
and writhing upon the wind.
They caress the dark patches
of grassless earth
they cling to the wild grasses
the mended fences
and they find themselves
once again
loosely organized
in picturesque patterns
beneath the very tree
that bore them.
There is a cycle here,
a heartfelt longing
to embrace their purpose
no matter their stage
for when they grow –
they grow and stretch
as if life will never end
and the thought escapes them
that as days pass –
so to, do their breaths of existence.
Time passes and they cling tight
fearing the release
but looking forward
to the freedom of flight.
