AND FALL....

And Fall   by R. Raphe

Away from  the streetwise world

In puddles and  quantities like crystals

of rain......much rain

Leaves dry and wither

Sun beats down

Then much rain.......a cacophony of sounds and scents

Spider webs glisten

as they catch what moisture they can

they turn into diamonds

And the leaves ........ They have no will of their own.

The sun dies behind clouds

And spiders wait for their webs to dry

For there is much rain. And the earth sleeps with bated breath.
