a lone leaf

awaiting the inevitable

fall

clinging to the rain

everything we can be

wild roses

a time when the rain was still

a playful companion

mid-summer

a dream between

thunderstorms

in out of the storm

milk billows

cool breeze

on this autumn night

I listen

to the warm whispers

of a love story

the fresh smell

of newspaper...

my parents

sip their coffee

without any words

lingering

a trace of moon

in my glass

tranquillity

breath held

in forest stars

between seasons

words becoming

hoverflies
