gentle fall

through the folding leaves and the way you fold into one another's arms
through the cradles of the valleys and the love that wanders arm in arm
through the undergrowth to the river and the path you follow home
through the touch, hand in hand
through the fields through which you roam
through the sunset clouds
through the wind that whispers through the grain
through the nights that you lay together, listening to the rain
through the stars and beyond the galaxy
through the snow and its gentle fall
through this love you'll know the secret
the mystery of it all...
