Light

Posted on Updated on

The world is filled with the setting sun:
Across the fields
The autumn wood
Glows gold.

Cottonwoods
Rise up into the tireless blue,
Clothing their spreading, unleafed arms
With light.

* * * * * *

The world is an autumn mist;
Cottonwoods
Hold the mist within
Their fine-branched arms.

The autumn woods
Stand up beyond,
Flanking the
Rising sun,

Which fills the mist;

And only the daring
Cottonwood
Spreads its branches,
Filling them
With light.

– Brandt Nightingale
