autumn
starbound Autumn rushed away this year
No parting shot, no hidden tear
You took the season by the hand
And led it to your promised land

The petals vanished long ago
Thorns replacing all you know
The blood ran fast in troubled times
Or happy days in warmer climes

The smile in your photograph
The meaning only half and half
I talk but don't know what to say
No words can bring you here today

I know what autumn meant to you
Each time I read the words anew
A letter written years ago
To someone whom you'd never know

The mystery is why you are
The closest to me, from afar
The more I read, the more I learn
The more I feel you return

You understand this silly mind
Solutions that I try to find
Thirty years you've been away
Yet still you welcome each new day

Almost Autumn. thats the name of your solo project, and he used it. 010901

birdmad comes to close the summer's cruelty, but spring is barely here and summer's not too far away

autumn little leaf
yellow, floating
conducting an orchestra
with your falling motion
the title: silence


brush up against my cheek
rustle ever so slightly
trickle to earth
feel it's embrace
welcome comfort
in all forms

release


yesterday was
tomorrow may be
and today

IS


is for you
as it is for me
make of it as you will
fall
or fly

which do you choose?


of all the colours
of all the skies
of all the tomorrows

i choose today


hands palm to palm
folded and holding
the yellow and fading greens
the browns and oranges
and the auburns, oh the auburns

i'm clinging to autumn
for today is crisp and cool
fresh and new
the time is moving
in a soft and windy motion
and im embracing this moment
taking in all i can of this one time
today
when the movement of time is safe
reflecting


my reflection in time


autumn

past i know it's there, hiding beneath the snow, waiting for the temperatures to rise again, the leaves to grow again, and fall back down to me. 121219

raze a fine film of frost covered everything. i could see my breath burn the air. less than twenty-four hours later, i was wearing shorts for the first time in more than a month. today it's supposed to rain. then two more days of this unseasonable fever. and then a steep slide into whatever winter wants to be. 231025
