In the afternoon It arrives The darkness Of the believers In the cross In his Holiness The black crows of the church On the streets Spreading their psalms As victims of diseases The silence Every day in the afternoon Their preaching of their book And their holy clock Tick, tock, Tick, tock Devoutness and purity The mirth gone The flowers withering away The grey, only the grey Every day in the afternoon It’s Sunday
I’ll see you in Autumn When the days are short and the nights long Filled with words To pick them out of the cold evening air The air so thick, clouds packed with thoughts The memories of Poe and Frost, so close by Where are you, my Sylvia, Emmy and my gliding Lizzy The smell of fallen leaves Creating mountains to ascend Taking the darkness in The trees become brains To cerebrate, to ponder As mates Now the air is thin, Spring arrived Eyes everywhere No more safely hiding Or a walk in the dark The white, clean blossom, the green overwhelming The light burning, day after day Morning after morning Night after night Dreams lost, the field gone, No more shadows to capture Waiting for the dark months of pumkins Hazelnuts, smelling woods and sniffing dogs Colourful mushrooms, dancing dwarfs and elves The morning melancholy mists Thinking of her Autumn is for writers The black nights feeding them, pleasing them With their touch and mysterious breath Now there is only Blue We put away our pens, till the next Autumn When we’ll meet again and dance in otherly worlds Till the next winter Longing for the first sunshine Her brushes warm and tender Outbursts of blooming Dreaming of fields full of harvest Are we here just to dream And not to live it, when it’s there I’ll see you in Autumn..
