the dance of tides on this moonless night calms the soul
Tag: senryu
and if you knew the reason why would you drive a stake through the heart of autumn’s sun
culled: soft feathered bodies laid to rest under the tireless watch of the old mango tree
slipped through the fingers and just like that the day is: gone
when the autumn quiet finds you: surrender
half moon: the wail of autumn wind turns the fields silver to the grain
there is a stranger magic in things that belong equally to nobody and everyone
rain this autumn night: black constellations swept across the yard
halfway home: set the bucket down and let the autumn moon settle in calm waters
blessed be your heart if it is full of wildflowers for grief will never take root
