Roam Of Autumn

Restlessly, leaves turn in fiery blush
Drawn up in their façade of speechless optimism
My fingers sensate to know the language of fall
Making arrows of my arms, reaching up to fondle colors
That so reflect the peachy hue of my own thoughts now
The retrospect of overcast days, weep their stillness
Rain relentlessly scours the sullen grass, seeking crevice to fill
Nourishing the soil for winter still, preparing the netherworld to dream
My eyes explore the arms of trees, pine skirts move about the breeze
Might I pocket gold and crimson smiles to hold
Horizons beat with thrift, as far as I can see, as far as I can walk
Moving between my favorite now and then
Roam of autumn back again
Restlessly, leaves turn in fiery blush
That I might meet the days face up, in peaceful plenty
