Continuing reading the poems of Pauline Johnson inspired me to create a new series based on her works

The lover's passing, his lullaby
October’s orchestra plays softly on
Of purpling airs they twirl and twist
The winds screech down from the open west
With a fringe of frost before her
Late cranes with heavy wing, and lazy flight
On the shore the heat is shaking
All colour fades from round that far-off spire
I only saw it’s gleaming from uplifting
Hushed lie the sedges and the vapours creep
The heron is homing, the plover is still
O’er dappling sea and broad lagoon
Till the autumn came and vanished, till the season of the rain
The sail is idle, the sailor too
There’s a spirit on the river, there’s a ghost upon the shore
And the dream hills lift their summits in a sweeping heavy crescent
