Under the orange and yellow foliage,
I come up for air.
A leaf has fallen…
This is dark resplendency.

I come up for air-
Like a fawn in the dead of winter,
This is light resplendency,
Oh white tailed dove.

Like a fawn in the dead of winter…
There are riches underfoot and barren branches above.
Oh white tailed dove,
Alight on my shoulder.

There are riches underfoot and barren branches above.
A leaf has fallen to
Alight on your shoulder,
Under the orange and yellow foliage.
