Autumnal air
The month of October in upper Algarve
with cooling evening and sunlight
begins to fade earlier every day.
Sky is still blue if a shade paler than
yesterday`s And has white whispery
strands of clouds near its horizon.
Windless, this day birds on the roof have
flown for a short break in Africa but will
be back in March to start a family.
The man from the forest has delivered
winter wood gave him whisky and
wrote him a check.
