Pristine rivers hold
afterglow of alpenglow,
spry wrens soaring
toward an onward horizon,
sweetness filling the orchard
maple seeds spin in cool air
dew sparkles on flowering meadows,
abundance coming into season

Ghastly hounds howl
scarecrow slowly raises its arms,
niitpicking whispers surface
skulls murmur of ancient curses,
spirits trapped within the vault ache
the walls hold their suspended breath
seeking the witch's favor
begging
for reprieve

leaves its

ripens grapes for wine
imbues gold glitter
glued to children’s art
the light
lengthens shadows
crowns a penumbra
hides behind clouds
catches the corners

If you are #leaving,
#lights go off!
It doesn't take
much effort
to flip the switch!
The theatre is silent
the stage is empty
the performance
isn't done until
the last actor has left
the building!
