And So It Is (2)

And So It Is (2)

A Poem by Chris Shaw

the dappled gold of sunlight
descends on weeping leaves
the trees are in a state of flux
in shades of inbetweens
the brushwood of this silver birch
sways gently to and fro
October air is cooling
my window pane aglow
filled with the autumn morning
with all a new day brings
the world continues spinning
and still the blackbird sings
