Autumn Remember

A   L   O   H   A  !

 In Autumn I remember

 being a kid back in the old neighborhood;

Riding my bicycle 

through the quiet streets.

Sounds of Nature: 

 Winds, Birds, Leaves, a Stream

punctuated 

by the whoosh of a lone car,

 or purr of propeller plane.

 How I longed to grow elsewhere

to clink glasses with bright people

in tall, bright cities.

 But this Autumn I Remember and Long

to pass again those quiet empty streets 

late in Afternoon,

past houses of families I know

while a thousand leaves Tambourine at once.

 A crow caws.

Wind crescendos like an important Becoming

heralded by moving, grand cloud shadows

all somehow felt inside. 

I would like to be that little person again

long enough to tell:

"Don't worry.

 Enjoy, Savor.

Don't miss a precious flavor

of your perfect Days.
