orgami's Diaryland Diary

harvest ruminations dusk

stillness in the air
the cold fingers of tall
blown clouds reaching high
like giant hands in prayer

Lawren Harris afflicted
dark underside touching down
in raining broodiness
somewhere south

and North the sun gleams steadily
and bright like an Autumn ending
crisp the vision of sight
so clear of humidity this is

so soon the sigh of summer will
fail and winds will grip us in
their gales the tempest furies
from the north with icy cloaks
and burden coats of ragged flakes
and freezing grip the stars
that fire like brittle tips
on midnights stare and mornings
pale

riderless skies thundering from
dark horse dreams

wake early in dark hour
the glow from streetlamp power
shinning dull like old penny
shine in pockets warm with
passing time

I dream of fragrances you wear
like derilict laughter up the
stairs the cooking kitchen
pantry wares the letters written
hearts food fare

and stunning winter in her cape
of greys and pumice shades
the jewelled idols of dismay
that stayed to play around
they lay the tired ghosts of
dreams that stayed when nights
collection left them by
the drawn democrat and weary
driver leather leads like dark
wires
