I Fear Autumn Will Not Take A Rain Check
by Philip F De Pinto
Arrived autumn in my neck of the wood
And with the sun at its back
It's shadow is the compass
I follow faithfully behind
As leads me toward trees rehearsing
Their nude scenes and soon
The wood will be tagged with
An X rating in which a juvenile
Will not be permitted to meander through
Without the accompanying adult
Arrived autumn in my neck of the wood
And the trees all bark and bare
As dare a moon in the round
To reveal there are more private parts
Scattered on the ground
Than there are leaves
In all the world
To hide behind
