Autumn letters

.

red butterfly

the tip of its wing is cut

by razor-blue sky

.

chanting of bells

autumn has dressed in silver

the gold of leaves

.

the scarlet heart

pulsates through the ribs

of naked aspen

.

first autumn frost

sketches the stars

on transparent canvas

.

from sun to the moon

letters with restless rider

dust on the Milky Way

.

I'm lost in the dark

crumbs of the Seventh Moon

feed autumn ravens

.
