Early Spring Leaves

The early spring leaves of the beeches

Collect moonbeams,

And scatter their remains to the ground.

 

A symphony of shadows

Orchestrated by the whisper of a breeze,

Alter reality in shades of darkness.

 

Deep from the pitch an echo of life,

Haunting melody of night birds song

Fading to mute as wings take flight.

 

Awaiting sleep and dreams to come,

Finding peace on my journey into the night,

Nestled tightly in the early spring leaves.
