The autumn leaves


Blow over the moonlit
pavement


 


Browns, chestnut red


Dry against hard gray


The moon’s silhouette


A gentle breeze


And silent footsteps


In the silent night


 


Her dress


An angel’s white


Of snow and nothing


Whispers of childhood’s end


And joy


And sorrow


Awe of the future


 


The trees overhead


Make a great sound


Of letting down their dry
rain


 


The caressing wind grows
harsh


All above shakes


Small drops


Join the errant sea below


 


How few people


Refract others light


Back to
them?


Long chestnut silk


Amethyst jewels


 


Against and with


An angel’s smile


Smooth porcelain


Never marred


Nor innocence lost


 


A small leaf


A black feather


A single fibre
of hair


 


Dead brown


Lively reds and class=SpellE>golds


The ebony of silk


Floating to the ground


 


The moonstones vanished


Silver


Gold


Red


Green


Blue


All together


Not woven


Shinning in the moonlight


And return back to it


 


Despair


Which had
slid


Down into your stomach


Like a lack cobra


Disappears


As small rain


Patters on the sidewalk


 


Did it, too once drink of
darkness


Only to be dispelled by
light?


The light


The rain,


Pouring down


 


Laughter blows


Across the moon-colored lawn


 


Innocence of children


Joys of greens and silvers


Blue lit on late nights


 


The sounds carry


Never dying


 


The hot gold


Elation to us


It burns


And destroys


And is destroyed


Yet, is reborn, once more


 


In the palm of roses


Crimson


 


The soft stars


Bring the rain down


Upon the sidewalk
