~
Her mistrals to weep
as palm of aurburn hand
netted veins to trod
upon leaflet surface,
residing within is debris,
of bared breast
from her barked lover.
Winds to sweep hearts
off as meaningless paper
drowning
within glorious twilight,
as September tolls
capture engraved souls,
inside passion
of arched branches
that meet each other
before their limbs
fall limp in Autumn
in celestial fall
of an angel's halo.

This is beautiful, my friend... loved the metaphor of falling here...the leaves as stars. Wonderful poetry!
