Autumn Rumours


      Afternoon ember flare coddles forest
      Nodule noses, from dark bark eyes sap drips
      Naked soldiers, Summer’s subside promised
      Farewell foliage, spun fairy floss gossip
  

      News spew swept red runaway train carriage
      Ridiculed witches watch fireworks astral 
      Rudimentary broom aircrafts encourage
      Twilight wake creatures creep from log capsules


      Twitching whiskers, dusk susurrate translate
      Trampled damp mushrooms mulch to mildew fleece
      Orange fungi full moon balloon inflate
      Hot flight flame exhales exhausting release

     
      Grey limb wind tortured troops groan, familiar
      Guards gravely wait for Winter’s insignia
