Change of Focus
Full moon on the cusp of September
rises behind cloud wisps.
All day the feathers of mackerel sky
(never long wet, never long dry)
dominate the cloud scape.
Late summer, the fireflies have gone
but crickets with their rhythmic chirping
make up the evening soundscape
as night comes on sooner and sooner.
Summer clothes, passe, at least on some days
as we log hot-weather memories away,
a little sad that summer is soon past
We shift our focus to soon-coming autumn.
What is your change of focus as the seasons meld together?
Yesterday we gazed up to see the patchy orange and green trees. Around noon the half moon was still out in daytime! We stared in wonder as the sun, now to the south, made a bright white glow on the moon's left side. On the right side of the half moon, a "blue" horizontal line emerged veiled in very thin clouds~
