Autumn's Grey Solace Shadow, Light, Echo
Their sky turns to dusk
Over the weeping of willow trees
Swaying in the tepid breeze
A howling moon arousing the forest
Children of the stars fall to play
In the winds their voices sing
Deepening trees swallow the moonlit trail
They follow the echo
Heard by the night
They tranquilize the peaking eyes
That scrutinize their every thought
To the moon's delight
They galavant amongst the path
Dangling from snakily limbs
They're like shadows
Laugh and cry
Live and die
Seek and hide
Cherishing the moon
Rolling clouds sprinkle dust
Upon their silkened hair
Of deepest black
Bouncing parades of peace in the night
They lead the watching eyes
The waning moon sets to rest
Withering a night sky to a zombie grey light
As with the moon
Beneath existence
Their bony feet scamper
To their maternal sanctuary
Hidden where fairness cradles the earth.
