![]() The Autumn Veil is Safe and SoundA Poem by Gem MarieAnd I will change before the trees
I've been falling way before these autumn leaves This autumn breeze blows Faded in hues my mind cant make sense of Boxing glove, what are you Blue branches, bark ruby red saphire Trying to pinpoint the days I had prior Raked and sorted with metal prongs Out without a sweater it keeps running along The sun covered by a layer cap of ice These labors are messy but we choose to be precise I want to stay above the electric glow, this snow Got me on the highest plateau Line of flight creates flashes of light The trunk is dripping and all these things are slipping Needles and pins this feeling im tripping Over these roots that seem to be Buckling driveways breaking up the ground Weathered and affected from surfacing, this cracked crown Exposed in the light of the sun and this arrangment is not an optimizing one Needed nutrients lost with time seen through straws These flaws accompany the cause These genes are faded washed blue and I've got to I've got to find some stable ground to dig into Before I am marked a hazard or something else less preferred These words slurred, I want wings something like a bird Denying the height that never ceases to excite Malay model kite that will let me touch the ground Hanging onto these strings, please dont let me down © 2009 Gem Marie |
