LET US TAKE A STROLL

IN THE VIBRANT AUTUMN FOLIAGE

O serene shadow hiding behind the fragility of life

Let us take a stroll in the vibrant autumn foliage

Through the slumbering majestic ancient trees

And the moss covered twisted native vines

Golden-yellow leaves cover the pathways

You told me there is a bench in the woods

Let us sit there for a cup of delicious spiced tea

Smell the scent of the pollen

Listen to the humming of the bees

The sound of falling leaves and fading light

Listen to the hymn of the Angels

Listen to stories of trees that bleed

Stories that filled our distant past

O serene shadow, my companion of solace

Hold my hand as we take a stroll
