crumbling
leaves drift with wind
naked branches shiver
crisp scarlet, gold carpet is laid
onwards
misty
fog fills the air
masking grey gloomy skies
brisk breeze blows pinecones into
puddles
odours
of faint wood smoke
like an earthly perfume
infuse dawn's dewdrops on iced fields
ahead
hungry
blackbirds hover
searching for sweet berries
blanket of dark clouds cover sky
home time!
