Autumn in New York 深秋
The skin-deep chill
The falling leaves
The crispy air
The cerulean blue sky
Comes the lean and fresh autumn
My favored season
After the sultry, indolent summer
It is still pretty young at the moment
深秋 is perhaps not exactly right
But never mind.
Rain had pounded on this corner of the earth mercilessly yesterday
It washed off the dust,
The dirt,
And the sin ..
The air is crispier
The trees are greener
The buildings are shinier
Even the water’s been washed cleaner,
spotless, simmering, sparkling ..
New York is stunning
Sophisticated
Seductive
Sexy
Oozes charm.
As is autumn
Lean on it
Enjoy the season while it is still young
Am I attempting to write a poem?
No, I don’t dare [keep hitting the Enter key]
But I’m going to a poem reading this Sunday
