autumn edges ever closer
as the heat, of summer nights, wanes
and wispy stratus clouds
whisk across the sky
in slow, silent whispers

are you listening fellow traveler?

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

And thanks, Marti, for finding my zero.

to whisk . . . slowly?
well, i suppose clouds are allowed to do that.
