Fading Light

The fading light of a November dusk

Wet leaves from yesterday’s rain

Cover the garden and sidewalk

The plodding steps of a passerby

The crows are quiet now

It feels soft and warm in the house

Maybe time for hot tea and a cookie

I’m ignoring my book now

Just as I’ve ignored writing

The depth of this moment tugs at me

It is another day waning

They are passing too quickly now

Their haste brings an emptiness

And I try to fill it with fading light

Never

Works
