Tuesday, 21 October
curtain of water
steady and soft
absorbed
~ ~ ~ echoed by
a flat tarred roof
burnt leaves
calm down
the earth
~ ~ ~ orator of seasons
soothing roots
of oaks and maples
emptied
until spring buds
~ ~ ~ peak
softly
softly
the sun wakes
the sky
~ ~ ~ the canvas
never stills
Note: The tildes are my “creative” approach for indenting one line. WP still baffles me in some ways…alright, admittedly, in many ways.
