Drifter

When I go walking on sunny days
Just before autumn's cold
The world becoming a silent page
For stories yet untold
A path of shadow wires leads
My wandering feet away
Over fiery leaves of red and orange
That keep the silence at bay
A train track bridge to anywhere
Becomes my new best friend
And teaches me to dance the way
That only drifters can
Pause amidst the walls of trees
To watch butterflies of gold
And drift to sleep on a sunny day
Just before autumn's cold
