A moon-lit day End of Fall The Sun an unseen presence Far down south-west Behind some silver cloud Maples showering gold On a lengthening walkway Lovely as the Milky Way A young couple in embrace On a lonely bench Hush, hush, silent speech Tip-toe vagrant breeze A teenage cutie In Halloween fancy Of rainbow hues Floats her way Did the trees around Send her down With their sliding leaves? Time in lethargy The skies in brood Life in slow motion Fowl in meditation Perched on the bank Their eyes lost in the sheen Of the placid pond Is this an evening Or a dream? Rub your eyes Pinch your thighs This can never be Anything but a dream "Wake you dreamer" "Into what? Another dream? A dream within a dream? And then a dream within a dream within a dream….? " Isn't life an evening of Fall Unending within a dream within a dream……? No one wakes here A dream-some nowhere
