for
catherine
tripping on the leaves...
oh! oh! the colors...
blowing in the wind...
the whirlwind!
everything is just blowing in the wind...
I am the wind...
you are the leaf...
with trails of leaves
chasing you...
encircling you...
in the whirlwind.
- Terry Nelson
You should be the national poet. This was moving.
ReplyDeleteI think I will put it to music...
:-)
Ooooo... lovely!
ReplyDeleteThanks Larry and Tara - I hope Cathy likes it - she's so literate you know.
ReplyDeleteI like this very much, as well.
ReplyDeleteFall is such a wonderful season; you captured the "swirl of leaves"...beautiful!
My Darling Ter: Are you and David Haas now collaborating on liturgical music?!? I'll listen for this composition at Mass!
ReplyDeleteI look fabulous in that photo-even Belinda thinks so!!!!
Miss Cathy: David Haas is a "has been"...Mr. Terry is now the "poet laureate"...Haugen-Haas can now retire..and prepare for whatever awaits them in the afterlife (did I say thaaaat??!)
ReplyDeleteThat's lovely, Terry. Neat picture, too.
ReplyDeleteMelody - you really think so? I was just being silly with the poem. I know nothing about poems. Larry does though - he was with "Up With People". ;)
