Autumn Eve

Autumn Eve


Pumpkin colored poplar leaves
parched and paper thin,
express their joy of being free
by their frolicking.

Crumbling as they cover up
the musty, frosty ground,
whirling wildly, blending into
pungent air around.

Fathoms high, forever far
softly shines an autumn star.


Maria Harden
circa 1977
