October

.
October by Elliot Levin

when the night chorus ends its cricketed whine,
gone overnight when first frost came
new silence blends with pitch of pine
and barks of trees
……………………………. what remains
when warmth departs and dark descends
is a resonate wake of love in heads
of echoes that too will be shed
