Fall, The Best Of All

The best of season to me is fall, A brown leaf when ready is to fall That a new one can sprout— A rule so hard to flout, Not just leaf alone, meant ‘tis for all. And the best time of life too is fall One is when ready for a recall, The time of renewal, Re-creation and all, To evolve, inch by inch to grow tall! ________________________________________________ A stone at Earnest Hemmingway's tomb (1899-1961) carries an inscription—his own: Best of all he loved the fall. _____________________________________________________ Reflections | 02.09.18 |
