Clouds spine and buzzards whine;
And cirrus scrawl.
Birds still and moles hill.
And brambles sprawl.
Winds whisper and leaves quiver;
And apples fall.
Train chuffs and chatter puffs.
And stations call.
Planes play and faunas hay;
And spiders crawl.
Trees twig and burrows dig.
And rabbits wall.
Mice mass and ribbons grass;
And tractors stall.
Nights dark and dogs bark;
And autumn’s call.
