Give me fallen leaves

Departure
Glancing out the window at
The earliest shades of Autumn.
Leaves contemplating departure
From graying gnarled branches; a
Gradual decent to mist dampened soil.
A red tailed hawk swoops low; tilts,
A flash of sienna in its spread tail.
The hamster pauses then freezes;
still motionless tribble-like, as
I fill another Yixing cup with Oolong.

Autumn
Early morning bitter red tea
Steam rises to face, a seasonal touch.
A few dry leaves crunch
Underfoot leaving rusty crumbs.
Autumn arrives; my heart warms,
Soon crackle of chestnuts roasting.

l'automne est arrivé
Autumn's first rain. She came in a violent passing, blowing droplets almost sideways and her chilling breath shocked all the complacent Californians. I loved every moment. I loved walking in the wet and windy air, coming home soaked and having to change into drier garbs and settling down with a cup of steaming sencha.
