         Autumn Song

Here amid dancing clouds
  and weightless dreams,
a deep-forest moon floats
the vast eternal sky of
infinite star field splendor
and bathes this ancient land    
  of ‘endless’ hills                  
in pure and gentle moonlight.
On this mystic Autumn evening,
when the veil seems thinnest
between worlds within worlds,
the voice of a night wind
sings through falling leaves
some long forgotten Celtic
tune of life and love and loss in
celebration of the penultimate
certainties of emptiness,
transience, and change.

You herald Autumn's arrival splendidly. The change of seasons usually brings out the best in poets worldwide.
