tim's Bits and Pieces - 47. Autumnal Thoughts
A part of my heart is empty
Fallow, now you’ve gone
Though you won’t, I lay in the dark
Wishing you’d return
Thick layers of gray cloud cover the skies
Leaves cling like limpets to branches
while cold fall winds whip them to a frenzy
And you land on our balcony, rounded in the cold
Cheeping and chirping as you hunt for seeds
I wonder what you think about or, if you do
Soon colder air will come and I worry for you
Where do you shelter, while we huddle inside?
Autumn is turmoil; a time of harvest
a laying down of bounty
which will keep us through the cold
white of winter sleep
