I only felt autumn's presence In October, in Hamburg A month after she was expected Crisp leaves, warm light Geese on the lawn by the lake And loneliness Stretching through short days and long nights Heralds of winter's coming Shoes worn thin by miles I wander, a stranger, mute Head full, heart singing The love of dark trunks and bright leaves Untempered by geography Or language
