'What I believe, I'll wail'
-Macbeth
You hate this time of year
when the leaves free- fall from trees
abandon their homes, displace order.
You despise the fading sun
in the earlier hours of dusk,
denying natures law.
Take it as a sign- a bad omen.
You cannot understood
that people change,
sometimes for the better,
sometimes for the worse.
You fear the trees
caped in frost, frozen-
crystallising a moment in time.
Proudly displaying; the unscheduled weather.
With no rules or prophecy.

This is fantasmagorrical, Beeme,!! Well done on the cherry; well deserved.
My favourite lines:-
"You fear the trees
caped in frost, frozen-
crystallising a moment in time."
More than enjoyed;-)

Really excellent, I love the last two lines especially, but the whole poem is superb.

This is so beautiful, Beeme. And it has a sort of haiku-esque grace to it - very zen! Well done on the cherry ;)
