What got you here?
I wish I knew.
It was just walking,
which turned to climbing
and then it was a sheer fall,
that may have been a flight
into this wintry cottage
of blooming peaches all around
where gold was falling to the ground
and turning into autumn leaves.
What got me here?
I wish I knew.

Beautiful natural imagery packed into relatively short lines. What i like best is after the first two lines I expected the poem to rhyme, and when I became reconciled with the fact that the piece wasn’t a rhyming poem, you turn around a drop the around/ground rhyme in there unexpectedly. That was very cool.
dustus – thanks a lot for the appreciation!
