Another Leaf Lets Go

November swirls
Across the lawn
Dogs a-tangle
Spray of cinnamon
Red quicksilver
Sundrops of saffron
Rain from the tumbled
High heaving heavens

And the leaves hold on
Still the leaves hold on

Taste of chocolate
Cold bite of autumn
Strafes the elms
Stings the eyes
Deepens the edges
Of brittle blue grass
Sugars the valley
With kaleidoscopic hues

And the leaves hold on
Until a leaf lets go

Rolling mercury
Befalls the meadow
Tangerine wheels across
A windswept field
Waves of runners
Infused with colors
Race and fall and
Rise again

Another leaf lets go
Another leaf lets go
