Streetlamp in Autumn
I adore the turn of day Crickets come on out I hear them play And I know the time has come For people grow quiet In the rush hour for home I stand outside waiting I turn with the plants And it is Different From the morning time The calling of the day All is said And done Darkness comes Making room for the little Tired eyes left in my heart And I inhale the cooling air Life is tough Sometimes it seems Like nothing turns But when dusk comes It is unlike the start Sun foreboding on the horizon And in this modern day My eyes sparkle With the headlamps of cars As the day birds Return on home To their nests In one moment The streetlamps come to life Summer falters And one bushy branch yellows Behind a famous one Casting this restful ambience
