September Sights

lightning cracks the day
                           thunders stun, benumb the brain
             dance, September rain

                                           and at darkest nights
                           when damp, dark-green foliage sleep
             with secrets to keep,

                                           fireflies stay hidden
                            to the stars unbeholden
             as moon melts golden
