POEM: Leaves In Autumn
By: Donovan Baldwin
Down and down the leaves will fall,
To each its separate fate.
Some rush in answer to some call,
Some few will seem to hesitate.
As if in fear of certain deaths,
They float up in the sky,
Soaring on the slightest breaths,
Of Autumn breezes passing by.
One last fling above the ground,
One taste of freedom's power,
Til settled with the softest sound,
In a red and yellow shower.
Down and down the leaves will fall,
To each its separate fate.
Some rush in answer to some call,
Some few will seem to hesitate.
As if in fear of certain deaths,
They float up in the sky,
Soaring on the slightest breaths,
Of Autumn breezes passing by.
One last fling above the ground,
One taste of freedom's power,
Til settled with the softest sound,
In a red and yellow shower.
