Like the Golden Leaves of Fall

I've written some good poems

And some that are bad.

Poems that are happy.

Others that are sad.


I've written of life

Also, about love.

Hell on earth

And Heaven above.


I've written of holidays,

Times of good cheer,

And some of those days

That now bring a tear.


I've written about peace

And also, of war.

I've penned about good folks

And those rotten to the core.


I've written of lilies

And columbines, too.

The beauty of roses.

More than a few.


I've written poems

About a crisp fall day

And the joy I've felt

Watching squirrels play.


I've written short poems

And those that are long.

Those with rhythm and rhyme

And can be sung as a song.


I am that poet

In each one and all.

Those heartfelt words wafting down

Like the golden leaves of fall.
