autumnal air

Autumnal air

The month of October in the Upper Algarve
with a cooling evening and sunlight
begins to fade earlier every day.

The sky is still blue, if a shade paler than
yesterday`s and has white whispery
strands of clouds near its horizon.

Windless, this day, birds on the roof have
flown for a short break in Africa, but will
I'll be back in March to start a family.

The man from the forest has delivered
Winter Wood gave him whisky and
wrote him a check.
