Waning crescent
in the morning sky
marks the slow turn
to lunar dark.
Autumn strengthens
as the green world lets go,
heat and light
surrendered earthward.
Joining the descent
to release summer’s weight,
I travel to the realm
of night sky and root.

Reading of “Sky and Root”
Reminds me of a description of the difference between human and artificial intelligence, symbolized by the cross. AI goes wide, accessing known data; human intelligence goes up and down, into light and darkness, soaring in the heavens and diving deep into the earth.
Very deep imagery and evocation of the autumnal vibe (sent from Dijon 🇫🇷). Thanks Don!
Deeply peaceful. Thank you, Don.
