I felt a Certain Beauty in the Rain
As I was joined by a distant crow
Sitting Treetop – anticipating – the end
Late autumn the spectacular show.
A gentle wind drops repeated ,
pitter patter a distant roar
Heart beating – repeating – caught
My spirit it did implore-
Listening Squirrel ear twitches
Fat cheeked hiding in a hole
Autumnal Winter stirring
Tomato hang on – the summer lull.
Wind gets frantic, days shorter
Believing winter’s near
In loudness between silence
solitary, escaping shear –
Beauty that we befall ,
Summer final refrain
banal everyday sunshine
Its Finished knowing – it will rain-
