They sat along the cusp of fall
where the leaves changed colors
with such rustic fervor
they held the templates of the ground together
until the winter came from around the corner

She had a long heart, so hollow
her father, Irish soul,
Perished with the fog overlooking the Eastern corner

where the hand of hers
became his hand to hold
For life itself became the leaves of Fall

She loved the small heart
the way it held its hand
onto his ripen chest

The fall had its answer
her dress had such an ease
the roman candle under her thighs
The slow ride of her night
For her loved her
Love of the fall

Provocative and poignant... and maybe she is (to paraphrase) just a little bit crazy, like poets or composers, or some of those men in Washington?

From the diffused light of December blinks on a Tannenbaum. Shazam!

The second to last line should read as "he loved her" not "her loved her."

Anyway, thanks Easy for the comments.  Yea, a little crazy never hurt anyone.

Cheers
