IRRÉSISTIBLE

The autumn shed of evergreen

lasted unusually till December

As if pausing for time

When the last leaves said goodbye

they spiralled under moonlight

 grazing shoulders in embrace

The moon was full perhaps

but gravity, omnipotent, 

that draws living breath close

Intermingled with the scent of night

threading life force

into the voids of want

Destiny's brush blending

a rush of abstract colours 

from a hidden palette 

Irrésistible, an explanation

thus it was in the beginning

perhaps shall be without end
