How I would want to grasp the hand that would lead me back into my unaccomplished deeds! Awesome images and verse.  Like a leaf floating down in the wind, was graced with  that this Autumn.

This was fabulous!  a departure of sorts from your usual  but so very good it left me speechless..  To sing a song without words... what a concept :-)  xoxoxo

Very good John I just wonder if the average reader will know who Neruda is (I take it some kind of deity who had roots) I will look it up later. Otherwise it is quite smooth and interesting .

As if a daydream can that be a silent song, I see the Leaves falling from the tree song, great read!

Hmmm... well J ~ I think you have written such a poem here - that Neruda would have been peeking at your muse.  This is silky smooth ~ and by that last line - 'rich'.  Thank you for your read and your very thoughtful comments.  Elyse
