Windswept Doorway

You have set the borders of the earth; 

You have made summer and winter. 

Psalm 74:17

Leaves when they fall

Miss the company they knew

Waving to each other on summer mornings,

Chatting together on airless afternoons,

Clinging together shaking during thunderstorms,

Whispering secrets on sultry summer nights.

They fall tumbling, bumbling, fumbling

To the ground where they re-congregate happily

Along fences and against country barns and houses.

They are swept down alleys and across sidewalks

They meet and greet each other with 

Lengthy sincere hugs—camaraderie    
Sweet fellowship!
