Falling

As months side into fall

Dull evenings gather in.

October’s bedroom chill

Creeps under summer spreads.

Downhearted flowers droop

And huddle from the wind,

Lawnmowers reminisce 

In ramshackle leaky sheds. 

Dew glistened fallow fields

Are strewn with natures lust, 

Drab rich fecund accretion 

Snags on hoes and rakes. 

On arboreous city streets

The force fed shoppers throng,

Dragging weary feet through
Wind flotsam golden flakes
