BRIDE OF SET
NEATH THE AUTUMN TREE
SUBTLETY

Subtlety an art lost to me
appreciated but hard to free
loosed from deep inside of me
words meaning more than seem
Craftwork no not fabrication
patient with no deliberation
ardent with no prevarication
words unblurred no obfuscation
Can you hear the meaning spoken
not a dropped kerchief as a token
sunset one while another awoken
golden chords of melody unbroken
Autumnal flame on every tree
Winter came and now flees
Spring and shower turning green
Summer cinder fields of me
[Childhood][Memory]
Sesame Street Clip set to Vivaldi
Always makes me think of rain, and equate rain with love.

NEATH THE AUTUMN TREE

Down where shore meets sky
on bended knee to drink
in reflection spied me
her eye reflecting, sees.
Overshoulder she spins round
tossing tresses coloured brown
half-expecting nothing found
-- monolithic being astound.
I offer her a cup to drink
she takes it from me gingerly
dips beneath the water's flow
and drank its cool nice and slow.
Wordlessly we gaze a while
that chance ******************
***********************
and notch eleven on her dial.
[$$$]
Oft at night I return
wet my finger in the lake
to cool that sim'ring burn
-- no mere memory can slake.
I trace my hand ************,
feel the sting of summer nights,
-- and shone like stars in truth
the amber lights of fireflies.
For in the boughs a paper nest;
unlike bees ****************
majestic creature some call pest
Queen Wasp' *****************.
************ is holding fast
Willow witch, it's my noble birth
********, we want endure
********* woman of highest worth.

At 13 the cutest thing, we
both wandered, in Other-searching
light as air, she, from town to town
While I endured the waiting game
Then I had found her in '16
Sang of colours dark, unseen
Her face of rarest beauty
Her voice of sultry-soothing
Her wall-art of hidden-meaning
Had only grown more alluring
Shapely, britches-filling
that smile, her eyes & tresses
Compelled me to further knowing
Years passed by, my ears were nursing
Rusalka, my heart was drowning
Then 60 days of yearning
Fireworks to Autumn's turning
Her Eyes! Her Eyes!, smoulder-burning
Magnetic, animals circling
Ankle shown, bent, eyes confirming
Then in framed screen was now learning
Writing words in chords now forming
Almost saw her again in person
Heartful, smitten, bruised in waiting
Dream unveiled & our meeting
home, then, over the water, I
Learned to pray the Rose City way
She is the more: I'd found my mate
