In Autumn's Moonlight

In Autumn's Moonlight
Leaves dance by chance...
In winds of change.

In Autumn's Moonlight
Shadows turn yesterday's garden...
To a rustle of blue and gray.

In Autumn's Moonlight
A breath turns to mist...
and the memory of a past love...
is a cool tear, upon a brisk soul.

For Cindy

The season's first frost
clashed with her innocence...

I see her innocence smiling in the night sky.
Under the sky, I wonder why...why not I?

I wish for her friendly embrace...once more...forever
Only to have her Mother's tear on my shoulder
on the rainy afternoon.

...But we shall meet again.
I will embrace her once more...
forever...soon.
