One Autumn Night

one late night in the grip of a super moon, captivated by the elegance of the season in an even slumber with bulbs sleeping on the brink of winter. we surrender our senses to the alluring view and feel of this exclusive new. autumn in its evening gown, its hibernating blooms, its brittle bark and rusted grass in repose with sleeveless branches against a midnight sky and in a hovering haze. wrapped in a multi colored coat of changing leaves and scattered acorns to gather we walk on air enticed by the flow of a cooling breeze in the warmth of what is we. Maurice Yvonne September 6 2014 One Autumn Night (in seven lines) CONTEST FOR LINDA
