Fall

Psalm 90:10

~ ~ ~

paper leaves pirouette to the ground

in a brazen crimson cacophony of color

like prima ballerinas

turning 

               twirling 

fluttering

                      falling.....

their grande and golden finale

And coming to rest

to curtain's close

they lay their bodies down

a prismatic pall blanketing the earth

awaiting burial,

funereal rest

finally

               Finally

finally

    Rest.
