Oh to live forever under stately oaks A breath of autumn in the air Treading paths many have traveled And touching the history there Sights, sounds and heavenly smells Senses overloaded, heartbeat overkill Re-living youth spent wildly Losing yourself in the childhood thrill Many memories of a father and son Treasured images in mind’s eye keep Above all, marking all that passes, The sad Spanish moss weeps Feel the earth upon the hills What mysteries they may contain Let the lake waters soothe And in its voices hear all explained No other place rivals here in majesty A heaven amongst mortal sight I vow to be a ghost when I die And haunt here every autumn Saturday night |

there was a place, long ago, in dusky dusty CA where I wandered 'mong Spanish moss where my childhood played it dusted me with memories of what had walked before leaving me with history and footprints at its door... thank you for the inspire, you are one fine Magician, indeed.... |

I find it interesting how Autumn invokes a kind of introspection and creates a deep longing of "used to be" that we so lovingly yearn for...very nicely done. |

Brings to mind a hunting trip with my Son Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Nicely done my friend, lovely imagery. P.S. Sorry you don't have e-mail, not easy to call or fax, but does seem we have some common interests. Take care. |
