Here in my late autumn

Here in my late autumn
Trees behind the bare trees
Have grown more evident
I found the woods of me

Beyond old echoes my
Phoenix sings their swan song
Now stars the canopy
New yodels yearning strong

These intimate garments

These intimate garments
Hung out on a clothesline
My dying canary
Or the evergreen pine

The silly and sully
The passion and perish
Moments of pleasure and
The dreaded nightmarish 

A kiss on the forehead

A kiss on the forehead
A brush against the cheek
A pat on the back and
The gentle words we speak

The touching of the hands
A look into the eyes
A long hug and that's Life
And then the sad goodbyes
