Autumn Leaves, acrylic AVR 2005

It's a song, each note a leaf falling from a tree,

each pause, silence as it hangs on some levee;

it's imagery whispering in soliloquy

with a hammock below in cantabile.

Softly the breeze comes blowing, cool and free,

picking leaf after leaf from the sturdy tree;

each an event of the tree's long history,

and the youth in me, in sweet memory. ~
