Bright falling leaves
Trail crunches underfoot
Poignancy of change
Fire-red leaves
Laced with frost
Sun rises slowly
Unsettled
The autumn sky
Refuses to rest
Out of the darkness
Runners materialize
As the day unveils
A rugged thread
Between lakes and travelers
Long day on the trail
Sound of nuthatches
Venus and Mars
Linger
Frosted rooftops
Rabbit with leaf-filled mouth
Scampers away
This one lap
Leaning into the wind
And nothing else
Underbrush glows red
Geese fly low overhead
As the sun rises
Dancing gusts of wind
Single yellow leaves twirling
Gently to the ground
