Come Fly Away (Rondeau) #459



Come Fly Away
(Rondeau)

"Come fly away in autumn's breeze,"
So taunt the leaves blown off the trees
Gone twirling, swirling through the sky
In auburn mixed with blues on high ...
They thrill the poet's eyes and please.

I watched them dance across with ease
In varied sizes and degrees
Of elegance while drifting nigh
And whispering their soft reply ...
     "Come fly away."

I watched them serenade and tease
And dip they did down to their knees
As tumbling wayward, gone awry
They all went spinning, grinning by
The one, now, letting go its squeeze ...

"Come fly away!"
