Quiet Fall

There is a quietness
in the fall
and one really
has to listen
to hear it.
Most wait until
deep in winter
and think
they hear it,
but that is winter's sleep-
a silence-
and not the stillness
of which I speak.
The sound I hear
is of leaves
changing colors….
the most beautiful
quiet in nature.

I too believe that I know that quietness..what a magical time of year, don't you think? I love it, and your poem.

Robert..yet again you have surprised me! How have I missed you? I really like your style! Keep it up!(I wrote a poem called "To Drink the Wind" about riding my horse in the fall.)
