Autumnal trees

Clear skies at night lead to frosts, but crystal clear skies. Not a cloud around, the early morning sun picking out the moon and highlighting this lovely old ivy encrusted tree.

The Moon

The Moon, La Lune,
La Luna, A Lua,
De Maan, Der Mond,
Ang Buwan, Bulan,
Selene, Phoebe,
Isis, Bendis,
Nanna, Abnoba,
Mani, Selardi,
Tsukuyomi, Anumati,

Whatever it's called,
It shines all the same,
Dappling the ground,
Creating shaded frames.
Circling the earth,
Inching away,
A romantic light,
Signalling end of day.
