Autumn Gales
(Nov 2000)

White wispy clouds scud across the sky
And brown trembling leaves lose their hold
Power cables dance as the air rushes by
And a lone figure leans into the cold.

In the pale autumn sun not a seagull soars
Trees bend as roots grip the ground
And while the whining wind through the hedgerow bores
The fox knows he's safe from the hound.
