The day

The ominous day has its very own voice,
never too busy for a sudden reminiscence,
gathering all its scattered wild berry boys
in a chilly bleak basket full of senescence
and a faint wind that lures you astray.

The mentally disturbed trees are waking
to the songs of thin, sluggish, green grass;
and I am but the observer at the rim, aching
with what is taking place under the glass
and above all one can witness in one day.
