Elsewhere,
Copper leaves are forged by sunlight
On top of the ivory birch-tower.
Woodland in transition, intense color:
Silver, gold and emerald.
Many prepare for winter,
With a good leafcut and a coat of ivy;
Coal tits, wrens, sparrows and robins
Weave their music-smoke
In the cold November air.
Now forget what I said.
Do you dare
To be there?
