Russet Remnants


Photo credit: Photobucket

The fall's russet remnants,
In a last late show,
Warm the room's tenants
Behind the window.

The heart though lonesome,
Can reach the beyond
And clutch in the bosom
Those that are fond.

Where the light reaches
Is where I can be;
There's no need for bridges
And no need to see.

You can throw me into prison
But never my mind;
I can seek any season
If I am so inclined.

You can shut the window
To drown me with the dark
But by morn tomorrow,
I'll be free as a lark.

And, when those remnants fall,
Lie asleep on the ground;
I would have given my all
And I'll be homeward bound.

Live today as if it is your last
For tomorrow will soon be in the past
