Falling

Falling

~ I wrote this awhile ago, but since it is fall here in Virginia, it seems appropriate to share now. ~

Today I watched

A few leaves

Released from their branches

Find their way

To the ground

A seed pod too

Light and airy

Whirling downward

To rest in the grass

Then a feather

From a beautiful bird

Floating sweetly

Softly from on high

And I thought

How beautiful

All this falling

As I fall for you

Over and again and again*

*Thanks, always, to Dave Matthews from whom I more than occasionally borrow a line. 😉
