My leaves become their actual colours and fall from my face, red, yellow, ochre. My voice rustle of green leaves is no more. I am the scent of ripe apple and pear. I am the rain on sodden bark, slow time. My days shorter, dark sooner, light rarer. I am burning leaves. Face of Harvest time. After the fires, my mouth nose and eyes spout green shoots, new leaves bud and grow on my barkskin. I flourish once more. An aspect of dream. Memory of ice. Warmth without, within. In stone, wood or paper I decay lose definition, but still my image grows -Paul Brookes Bios And Links -David Russell Mosley is a poet and theologian living in Washington state. When not teaching or writing, David likes to wander in the woods, drink a good scotch, and smoke a pipe.
