Late autumn leaves

these late autumn leaves 
remain affixed to the trees
another window storm

under the sunlight 
wheels turning over miles
moving through cold air

within the evening
leaves abruptly yellowing 
then drifting earthwards

as the sun descends
the firey glow through the trees
warming my soul's depths

berries in the sky
crows waiting for me to leave 
to begin their snack

cold wintery air 
walking over sunlit sand 
freedom from the wind

I'm glancing eastward 
as the evening progresses 
biting autumn air

gazing at the dusk
light dances upon the clouds 
awaiting night's grace

autumnal progress
food provided for the birds
with the air cooling

as dusk approaches
changing leaves upon the breeze
sunlight turns to rain
