"Blood Of Autumn"

The kaleidoscope of autumn

is a painting exploding

from a heavenly, pregnant sky.

Leaves of gold, bronze and red

fall from smoky,

twisted trees, like memories.

Elongated shadows like demons,

are of the devil's breath,

waiting to steal precious life.

The last drop of blood falls freely

upon the winter's ground

leaving the earth, pale white and drained. . .

Timothy Michael DiVito c1982
