POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Fallen leaves
The leaves on the trees turning from yellow to brown
With a stiff wind soon on the ground
Rustling, rustling
A pile of leaves so neatly collected
Beckoning me so they're not neglected
Rustling, rustling
I jump I jump so peacefully
In a daze of joy so peacefully
To which I must admit this practice I adore
Now the leaves askew and beckoning no more
Until next year my beautiful foes
Rustling, rustling as the wind blows
With a stiff wind soon on the ground
Rustling, rustling
A pile of leaves so neatly collected
Beckoning me so they're not neglected
Rustling, rustling
I jump I jump so peacefully
In a daze of joy so peacefully
To which I must admit this practice I adore
Now the leaves askew and beckoning no more
Until next year my beautiful foes
Rustling, rustling as the wind blows

The boat
There's a boat that is all mine
That waits for me under a tall pine
Not much to look at not much to see
When it's just the two of us I feel so free
Over the water all through the waves
Ripples of peace, for me it saves
Away I go off to ponder
The open lake is mine, alone I wander
Listen as the waves hit the bow
I seize the day here and now
Away from it all and everyone
I feel so alive, oh what fun
A storm looming time to head in
Time for my boat to wait again
That waits for me under a tall pine
Not much to look at not much to see
When it's just the two of us I feel so free
Over the water all through the waves
Ripples of peace, for me it saves
Away I go off to ponder
The open lake is mine, alone I wander
Listen as the waves hit the bow
I seize the day here and now
Away from it all and everyone
I feel so alive, oh what fun
A storm looming time to head in
Time for my boat to wait again
