September Blue
September Blue
Lavish fields
ripe with corn and harvest.
I lie in the cornfields
that are bowing their heads to the wind
growing colder each passing day
as we race towards the Equinox.
Looking up into the deep late summer sky
two ravens circle in flight
black wings in blurry motion.
In nearby tree, the apple fruit;
crimson colored symmetry
douses in sweet perfume.
The dream of fall
echoed in the scurry of chipmunk and squirrel
is found within as well.
My eyes full of starlight
I watch the midnight skies
till chill sets within me,
and the song of the cicada lures me to sleep.
