    autumn

    ..:







    I am alone in my process

    Autumn is showing me that the leaves need

    to depart from the trees

    I am a single leaf

    gracefully falling

    floating through the misty air

    onto my bed which is the earth

    There are other leaves

    that touch my outstretched arms

    and they too are looking up

    into the overcast sky, waiting for

    winters first snow…

    Soon, we will be covered in

    a blanket of ice crystals,

    waiting patiently to

    transcend.

    Another cycle of life

    begins.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
