yellow reign

 yellow reign

heavy yellow rain

shafts of light

from a wind sun

fast upon an autumn 

morning after

a storm black night

fig leaves cowering

a leaf on the window

running down

in the bluster

of the trees stirring

anxiously

light and dark

at war

   oh yes

a blue white sky run

falling under 

the dark spell

of hell october 

be gone with you

the summer has gone

you know it

i know it

let us settle for winter

the deep end of it

what do you say

shake hands on it

shake the trees

pile the leaves 

colour up a false warmth

in a blanket snooze

and be gone with you
