Autumn radiance
Shining through the August leaves
Paints a clear green light.
Shining through the August leaves
Paints a clear green light.
Barely a murmur
Of leaves trembling in the breeze
In morning commune.
Of leaves trembling in the breeze
In morning commune.
Bright blue chicory
Guards the edge of the road
Trumpeting the Fall.
Guards the edge of the road
Trumpeting the Fall.
Time of the pampas
Shining silver on the road
Subduing the field.
Shining silver on the road
Subduing the field.
Ready to disgorge
A mouthful of eager blooms:
Mother Queen Anne's Lace.
A mouthful of eager blooms:
Mother Queen Anne's Lace.
Billowing softness;
Whisper's distance from the road:
A bush of white clouds.
Whisper's distance from the road:
A bush of white clouds.
With dedication
Olivia munches on;
The whole field is hers.
Olivia munches on;
The whole field is hers.
A form in the frame?
Or was it just a knocking?
Questions from the road.
Robins on the lawn
Moving with unusual haste--
Hop, peck, back and forth.
Moving with unusual haste--
Hop, peck, back and forth.
It's almost noon now,
Wednesday morning is finished--
Recuperation.
Munching their shadows:
Olivia and Collette
Always consuming.
Roaring in shadows
Metal beasts devours woods;
Trees become sawdust.
Metal beasts devours woods;
Trees become sawdust.
Grass taking over;
There's no car and no people--
The abandoned house.
There's no car and no people--
The abandoned house.
Flashes of green light
Cut across the forest floor--
Illumination.
Cut across the forest floor--
Illumination.
Waiting and equipped
Trampoline stands in tension;
No jumping bodies.
Field of goldenrod
Lights up the sleepy road
Whispering "awake"!
Lights up the sleepy road
Whispering "awake"!
