Sunday eventide, on the slope

of the fire-hued mountain,

owls emerge with candlelight

eyes from the pines' boughs,

I'm sitting by an open window,

the peace of writing in the eve.

Hunter's moon, so settled and

goldenrod,

the young days of autumn's

presence,

sipping cinnamon hot cider,

Hounds baying in the smoky

valley,

songbirds taking an evening

vow of silence.

Writing of bygone friendships

and gained faith,

harvest of bittersweet

recollections,

surviving parent,

a ghost of memories,

of loving words not spoken,

wishing to have been missed -

just as a childhood image

of jumping into a tall mound

of blushed leaves,

I part my lips to smile,

in the peace of writing in

the eve. ~
