70

 3 score and 10 takes us to the end of Autumn 

Clinging on to the the vestiges, waiting for the cold dark days to arrive of Winter

A period of reflection , routine , 

Shutting down of mind and body 

Serenity in actions

Slow and deliberate, conserving what we have left.

No final push 

No Indian summer. 


The summer has gone and post along with the youth of Spring

Picking through the chaff and stubble waiting for the moon to light the way to eternity 

Rising in solemn orange 

Calming the cool twilight 

Illuminating the mists of vision and thought 

The tiger in front of me 

Sleek. 

Powerful

Master of all he sees

Merciless,

has come 

I’ve no chance

No negotiation 

He will carry me lifeless through the door.
