The Autumnal Night

In the slow, thoughtful wind

Shadows lurk in the sharp night

Swimming in the forgotten,

Crimson lake of leaves.


The aroma of a distant fire

Weaves between the haunting

Song of a neurotic owl.


Trees appear as pillars

Holding up the sky

This is what I feel on

An autumnal night.
