A Taste of Autumn
By Richard L. Provencher

The sun filters
through
maple-leaf trees
designed for beauty-
this mighty forest
invites us
into its realm
of mysteries – the
woods broad
& luxurious green – with a
call of the wild
atmosphere & a bushel full of
animal movements-
branches changed into
trees immersed in
an abundance of glitter.
The grandeur of taller trees
almost knocks me
off my feet
as I gaze upon
upper levels of sky
where clouds
have freedom to fly.

A beautiful finale to a beautiful poem. I could see those maple-leaf trees, Richard.
