Autumn

And so Autumn blows a browning breath 
Into the streets, around the tops of trees
And days of sea salt are mined into memory.
Arms and leaves start to fold, 
But creation is a constant energy
About to be found
In dreams, on sheets, in sounds
While the soil sleeps under 
Red bowed heads.

Under the Sun

Fierce in the sky
