AUTUMN’S RED CARPET
The note on the door said
drop me a line and
when your around and
when you get home
It was just getting dark as
I went for the door and
straightened my reasons
a change of the season
The colours of Autumn
littered the sidewalk
dusting the darkness
the lights from downtown
You-your so well read
and I’m completely green
what I mean
you’re so well red
Autumn’s dead
Yet so beautiful
That’s funny I thought
the door was wide open
on a cool Autumn evening
the hallway lit up
there on the floor lay
beautiful Autumn
a bloody red carpet
ran down the stairs
you- your so well read
and I’m completely green
what I mean
you’re so well red
Autumn’s dead
Yet so beautiful
