Adirondack Autumn
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

By Lucia Kiersch Haase
Other Poems by Lucia Kiersch Haase

Mountains before me and mountains behind 
me, flame up in gold and red.  Sunset's glow
reflects in water, breeze stirred.  Gentle flow
of memory, all leaves- each branch entwined
stirs a winded Blue Mountain Lake, in mind
as I ponder.  This canopy I know
of present, white pines and paper birches grow
where on forest floor, moss and fern, I find
the Hudson's depth is never far away-
a steady course of time in the making.
Let the red sugar maples have their say
each day of this season's drumming waking-
a searing within of God's grand array...
of such feral beauty...there's no mistaking.
