Tanka for Autumn
the autumn woods
leaves drop with a slowness
in the long shadows
unspoken woods of love
between us
gathering leaves
I can’t decide which to toss
pressed between
waxed paper
they still fade
reaching upward
the heavy limbs of the maple
dimmed by the mist
the eternal patterns of autumn
spread before me

a drowsy autumn afternoon through the open window distant calls from children at play a slow moving breeze koto music from our Japanese neighbor you beside me asleep after loving your breathing easy and rhythmic
