The World Wide Web

The light is changing
I am dreaming of
an approaching Fall
but Mum is the word
I am dreaming of
the once spring green
of a Sugar Maple
turning shades of orange and yellow
Of the earlier sunsets
of mid-October
the time of un-mown lawns
the time of year
when spiders rule
out in the open
covering the fields
with the spiders’ secret
appearing only
in precious moments
a world of webs
that appear only
in a certain slant of sunlight
I have yet to capture
and they reveal a silent take-over
by the spiders
in webs that sparkle
secretly
silently
mirroring
the infinite web of creation.

Beautiful.
