Autumn Reverence

and then
the sun
lights up
the gold
.
dark limbs
exposed by
tumbling leaves
.
moss
covered sleeves
the strongest arms
this sycamore of ages
bear
.
this glorious
cathedral stands
.
where sings
the choir
of birds
.
and rustling
Autumn prays
.

Covid has brought me
a new friend called Natalie
she makes me coffee.

Her outside cafe
among changing autumn trees
at Turton Tower.

Away from the news
away from suburbia
away with the fairies.
