Autumn Song |
| Sunday morning, she’s still asleep and breathing soft |
| Awoken by the kettle whistle |
| Send from the distant moss-hung keep to the drowsy croft |
| A prayer my flower won’t become her thistle |
| As I train my fingers to the steel to bring us luck |
| And now she’s found my weakness |
| She’s in my heart and in my dreams and in my waking up |
| She’s in the clay and the landscape drawing on my coffee cup |
| Bleary-eyed, the dawn birds sing their songs of love |
| Looking for someone to hold them |
| Free from all our aimless thoughts they fly above |
| Like us just doing as Mother told them |
| In leaving footprints in the lawn when the dew drops freeze |
| While the world keeps spinning |
| She’s in the keen touch of the frost and the wind that moves the trees |
| She’s in the smoke from the bonfire burning up the autumn leaves |
| I numb my fingers in the steam, watch the dog run away |
| From safe behind my window |
| I think up rhyme to keep us calm and fill the day |
| Now she’s in each vowel and consonant of every word I say |
