Leaves By Matt Gee A bristling breeze bellows, Against a backdrop of cascading colors. Whirlwind of ember and auburn Carousel like haunted flames Dancing without a soul. Averting the ominous; Delaying the inevitable. They frolic in its midst, For one last tantalizing tumble; Till the Old Man comes calling. |
