Autumn's Only Chariot



[Baut Images: Autumn Moon]

Celestial light
As the Sun enters Libra,
A quarter moon
That's made of silver.

Autumnal Equinox
Of stories told,
How energy balances
For those with souls.

Ride the wind,
Ride the waves,
Ride the vibrations
In Autumn's only chariot.

2012 Roger Allen Baut

 Note: Once again this is a poetic triplet,
consisting of an image, poem, and video presentation.

    The beauty of autumn expressed in your words and video. Fall, a time of change...may we change within us those things that hold us back.

    love the rather mystical close on this...the riding of autumns chariot....finding balance...i am wondering if that itself is not an ellusive myth at times...smiles...

      Thanks Brian, really like your perceptive comment, "wondering if that itself is not an ellusive myth at times." I think it just might be, as we live in a world of illusion and myth a lot!

      Thanks again,
      Roger ☺

      Hey there! Thanks for stopping by Leigh! Yes, I sort of cycle around like the seasons, and Autumn, for me, is a time for reflection. And I love the image on your blog of the jar with leaves...Going to have to take a picture like that one! Autumn's Evening! DeeeLIGHTful! Roger ☺

      Thanks for stopping by and your comment. Actually "Autumn's only chariot," came to me upon awakening one morning, and knew it was the last line of a composition. Thanks again, Roger ☺

    I loved the song... I haven't heard King Crimson in awhile and have never heard this one. And I loved your poem even more. I read it a few more times while the song played... a lovely and peaceful experience. I was looking around your site and feel stimulated by what you have to say. Thank you for encouraging me to ride the wind again...

      Hi Serena! Thanks for visiting and leaving your thoughts! Yes, King Crimson! Thought the "Wake of Poseidon w/Libra's theme" fit in quite well. Glad you enjoyed it! Roger ☺

    My favorite season too, I think because I was born in it and fell in love with my introduction to the world.
