Apple trees in Wilclows orchard
hold Autumns golden glow
long into Novembers gray gloom.
Pirates, clutching doomed dabloons
tight in their grip,
leap from scuttled ship.
Shimmering emeralds sink
into black ink depths,
last breaths, escaping in
diamond bupples, rising to
waiting blue sky
as bucaneers drown.
Last leaf floats
softly to the ground.
