There’s More to Fall Than Turning


My hands go out like tree limbs

they're reaching far and wide

I know not of tomorrow

I know not quite of time



See these leaves?

they're burning

from to and fro

and side to side



roast like marshmellows

break my branches

pitch my twigs and swing

swing

                              swing

down ropes and vines





No, tomorrow I don't have time

I am not wide

I have four sides

and equal length in vines

that may or may not be used to swing.
