SOMETIME IN AUTUMN

The fall takes hold
gradually
like a soft piece of music--
each leaf, a tune
set to the rhythm of
the sun

the leaves fall slowly
first green, then red
then orange
then brown

finally, a naked tree
honors its individual
tempo

and with branches
reaching out

conducts a no
longer visible
orchestra.
