Autumn by Richard TrotterMy evening echoes yesterdays cold:
each year that slipped down my face
with no one to read the notebooks,
dissecting souls like steam from a cup
thats warm like the nectar of sun
sadly soiled by gaunt branches
as tendrils of winter whisper
and welcome the oblivion
of the tea leaf sky. 09/30/2003 Posted on 03/13/2004 Copyright © 2025 Richard Trotter
