aneath hairst treen

plainstanes buskit

in gowd leaf

beneath autumnal trees

pavements adorned

in gold leaf

 weet bates  -

leaves flettent atween pages

o yestreen an the day

rain beats  -

leaves flattened between pages

of yesterday and today

 broozilt gowan  -

petals ligg

...exclamation merks 

crushed daisy  -

petals lie

...exclamation marks 

 licht throuch

the hairst treen

...apenin her keel boax

light through

the autumnal trees

...opening her crayon box

yestreen a corp

the day swans' bonnieness

...the burn's calm souch

yesterday a corpse

today swans' elegance

...the stream's equanimity 

droont eemigrant

his wan fissog turnt

tae the muin o hame

drowned immigrant

his pale face turned 

to the moon of home

auld daunce studio  -

the wrackin-baw's sweeng

feshes the hoose doon

old dance studio  -

the wrecking-ball's swing

brings the house down

 pittin oot the buckets  -

a fou muin

...sae claen

putting out the bins  -

a full moon

...so clean
