Juneflower - Autumn

The whole pathway covered with fallen yellow leaves
As if giving grip to wobbly lovers' feet
As if bringing messages from above, whispering them into your ear as they touch you
Denuding the trees of their beauty so that every moment of love is like a thousand blossoms
Removing the shade so that you put your arms around your lover and
making space for the Gods to smile down on you
Exposing you to the Heavens when the world is what you are running away from
Portraying the shedding of inhibitions,
and the virtuous cycle of growth in love and decay for your love
The tallest leaf shows the fall of ego
and when all comes to dust, there is a new hope of Spring – eternal as seasons and love itself.
