Arthur Symons - AutumnArthur Symons - Autumn
Work rating: Low


There is so little wind at all, The last leaves cling, and do not fall From the bare branches’ ends; I sit Under a tree and gaze at it, A slender web against the sky, Where a small grey cloud goes by; I feel a speechless happiness Creep to me out of quietness. What is it in the earth, the air, The smell of autumn, or the rare And half reluctant harmonies The mist weaves out of silken skies, What is it shuts my brain and brings These sleepy dim awakenings, Till I and all things seem to be Kin and companion to a tree?
