Moon, River and Whittier Bridge
The Autumn Soul
A slow shift of the sun
that fades incrementally from
Northern skies in a final
canopy of brilliant crimson.
No longer an early riser,
the day brightens gradually.
A few hot hours linger,
a melancholy for something
missed settles into
the autumn soul.
