Autumn Fires
In the other gardens
And all up the vale,
From the autumn bonfires
See the smoke trail!
Pleasant summer over
And all the summer flowers,
The red fire blazes,
The gray smoke towers.
Sing a song of seasons!
Something bright in all!
Flowers in the summer,
Fires in the fall!
by Robert Louis Stevenson

a cool breeze in summer,

If your mind isn't clouded
by unnecessary things,
this is the best season of your life.

How much burning, burning will you feel,
Be friendly with the fire, enough ...

Southwestern Sun
Originally uploaded by Elva Undine
Another year gone, leaving everywhere
its rich spiced residues: vines, leaves,
the uneaten fruits crumbling damply
in the shadows, unmattering back
from the particular island
of this summer, this NOW, that now is nowhere
except underfoot, moldering
in that black subterranean castle
of unobservable mysteries - - -roots and sealed seeds
and the wanderings ...
