September

Dawn breaks,
the sun awakes-
an eerie mist bedecks
the stark conifers in a light
blue shawl.

out of focus
at the edge of my gaze
bathed in sun
a sepia rose haze

the draught ends
berries rot
    beneath the
bramble

 sun setting low,
Fall in all its golden glow;
anticyclones 
    hold transient sway

This poem is about the changes that Autumn brings, beyond the splendour of late summer. The poet sees the berries rot, and knows what is to follow when the sun sets.

I really enjoy your "Poems of the Month" Brian. This is no exception. Lovely. A short anthology of 12 poems would make for great reading. Cheers - Gary

I wonder about the anticyclones. I need to look that one up. We are still mostly held by summer but today and tomorrow are supposed to be cooler. I plan on opening the door to enjoy some of the cooler morning since it is supposed to be about 6 or 7 degrees cooler. Thanks for dropping by my page. Sara
