...the leaves, the wind, and the moon spoke of love...
We frolicked in the sunlight and
Autumn played in our hair
Voices were heard and there was
Laughter
The clouds rested as the
Fire crackled
Twigs were picked up and burned
Hazy smoke met a late summer
Day
We said hello to fall as children
Played
Adler and I quietly explored the woods
Where pine cones were examined
And bagged
He held one up to the sky and deemed
That it was
B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L
I laughed and hugged him and
Twirled him in the air
Marie followed
And walked barefoot with care
There was earth and acorns galore
I wouldn\'t have wanted it any other
Way
The sun just smiled
And then there was the night
The stillness in the cabin as grandchildren slept
And dreamed dreams
Those starlight moments between
Dusk and dawn
The hours before the children awoke
Morning waiting
For their next song
Treetops spoke of love as
Earth met sky
They held my heart
