Doorstep Image

Birds cluster on the rooftops
Against the setting sun
Their silhouettes so lightly drawn
As if by artists done.

The evening sky a creamy pink
With wisps like candyfloss
Life seems on pause, I catch my breath
As day and night-time cross.

I feel the chill is setting in
Sweet autumn's gentle token
A single car drives slowly past
And so the spell is broken ...

(c) Poet in the woods 2020
