waning moon
in the chestnut tree -
golden leaves
round it
in their tremble
--Steliana Cristina Voicu
aspiring towards elevated
amidst prozac
waxing gibbous
--Jerome Berglund
yellow moon
he insists on drinking
the harvest
--C. X. Turner
all the time
I thought I was right
autumn side effects
--Lakshmi Iyer
first frost moon
the bruises on my legs
changing colour
--Agnieszka Filipek
crickets chirp
dewdrops on a leaf’s tip
reflect the fading moon
--Karen Zhao
stuck
in the fork of a stump
full moon
--R. Suresh babu
not a voice or stir...
darkness lies on fields and streets
sad: the moon has set
--Imozeni
Leaves on a limbo
California cobblestones
wear the paint of your
sudden departure/
the carousel colors
rounding the railroad
tracks, cliff diving the
causeway, sketching
skies in north Singapore
with me in the pile up
of lost loves and leaves
that go limbo-ing
'neath these harvest of hills
'neath the autumn time moon
where I climb to each time
seeing y’all off again
Novembering you.
--Emalisa Rose
No Autumn in Bali But
Green fields;
Green grasshoppers.
Fresh waterways; fresh fish.
Masked in banyan trees, bulbuls sing.
And beneath November’s moon pandan breath of civets sweetens our air.
--James Penha
