We science-educated people often have such a hard time trying to express our knowledge to the general public.

Autumn

As the red leaves fall
off from the nearby maple tree,
All my dreams seem to fade away
to obscurity, ambiguity,
And as the night gets cold
chilling my soul to the spine;
I see a faint glimpse of light
leading me away from the darkness,
Stepping out to a brilliant dazzle
where the moon shines smiling, beckoning,
Grasping me in a conscious-unconscious trance
From whence my shaking heart gleams,
resonancing in the harmonies of rapture;
And with a Creeping and clawing
dawdling and cawing,
As the night skies fade
with the mark of a new dawn,
I breathe lightly, a faint smile
One hardship ends; to another respite.
