In September,
especially if it's been dry,
trees lose their leaves
singly, and casually.
But by mid-October
it becomes full release.
A massive display,
an elegant ballet
of twists and turns.
Colored leaves
sifting through branches.
Falling gracefully
through cool autumn air.
I imagine each leaf
a moving prayer.
