Mist tendrils, as smoke
over dark, placid water,
silver-flanked fish roll.

For one brief moment
both light and darkness balanced
Autumn tips the scales.

Inspired to motion,
Autumn leaves, eager to dance,
goaded by the breeze,
until losing grip, they fall,
their moment of freedom, brief.

Bright golden lances
pierce the towering grey clouds,
sun’s strength faltering,
feverish feeding begins
preparing for the Winter.

The portal opens
released, golden dawn is freed
her bounty granted

The Winter holly
festooned with blood red baubles.
Fast food in the snow.

As green shoots appear
in the springing of the year
Gaia is reborn

Ashen faced, the skies
discharge leaden, liquid cargo,
to the playful breeze,
now their voyage is complete,
gifting life to Mother Earth.
