Presence felt despite absence – the
real power, now gone, no more.
You chose it, we accept it; your
memories though unforgotten.
The river flows despite everything,
the joy of flowing who’s to feel?

Night’s shelter, out of Danger.
In wait lay Morning and Light to

Mother Earth understood it all; she
slowed down her move graciously.

I walked out; the sun was bright,
the day too hot and I wondered
why again the rising heat and yet
normal, people so cool?
September came with the answer,
spraying the air with perfume of love.

September, as you arrive August
seems far and forgotten;
yet it feels July dropped by just
yesterday, gifting us heat.
And love says it will visit soon; I
wait and wonder when and why.

Faceless Fear, you walk about conquering all with your soft touch.
Robot-like, we wait for more; our steps not ours, heavy, noisy.
September, you visit and leave; do we even say hi or bye?

The morning brought great sunshine, promising smiles, and then you
came -
your Self strong; the energy travelled so fast, my soul hit hard.
The sun hid, perhaps the effect of those silent cries it hears
well.
