a walk in souls shadow into winter

a soul 

hovers... amidst

the universal stream  

life a leaf...
floats upon the river 

spinning in lazy circles 
as we are 

drawn into the dreams 

of thoughts we've entertained 

yet, never quite attained...

inclined to become
caught in the eddies 
of life's flow 

as shades of gray 

begin to climb into... 

the gathering

of... the souls... 

overcast skies, 

adrift in 
rainy day dreams 
oh, as the sleepy rise 
eyes half closed 
get another 

blanket 
put another log on 
winter's 

coming, 

fast
