The First Leaf Of Autumn
A Poem of the Creator
I saw a leaf fall.
It fell on the path
In front of our house
On Eighteen Oak St.
It was the first leaf
Of Autumn falling
On a July dawn.
A leaf of yellow,
(rust at the edges)
Small in all the green
Of a hot summer.
Resuscitation
Was not an option.
The dead leaf lay prone
On the wet gray path.
God saw it fall too,
My first Autumn leaf.
Was it God's message
Speaking changing times?
I thought the seasons
Were turning early;
It may be just His
Word of reminder
That season are His-
And still in Summer
We can find ourselves
In a time of fall.
