Description

And so begins…

And so begins 

the morning rain, 

the skies deepen 

above the green 

to grey, 

to slate, 

to black, 

as the sun blinks 

once 

and slips 

behind 

the morning trouble 

of a weeping sky, 

not bothering

to shine, 

or to simply

look back.

for the birds 

are singing 

across the dappled silence,

across the trembling thousands, 

of a summer 

of leaves, 

sparkling in the millions 

the silver lights, 

upon the polished concrete 

of falling summer grey, 

the early morning skies

do weave. 

For as pressing,

upon the thirsting earth

with no sounds, 

just the rumble 

of thunder victorious, 

the people 

have hidden, 

gone into themselves,

sleeping deeply, 

dreaming, 

of sunlight,

as the rain presses

ever heavier, 

harder

upon tears, 

and windows, 

searching for the longer 

forgotten, 

the promise

of cold, 

the future memories, 

of once 

November days.
