about

Music by Neil thomson set to the poem
Fallen Maple Leaves written by Gerry Cambridge
about the joy of Autumn.

lyrics

FALLEN MAPLE LEAVES

Like jigsaw pieces to an
unfound puzzle,drawn up
from where we lie now we
were each a bud that swayed
on the blue and white, then
made all summer a
submarine shade with our
rustling high society.

Now we are colours of blood
and butter and bronze,
wind-shaken down from
our lofty tree,
and not to be shamed
by our last flamboyance
before we re-enter
mud’s democracy.
