Text of poem -

The Bush.
I know that bush,
Moses; there are many of them in Wales in the autumn, braziers where the imagination warms itself. I have put off pride and, knowing the ground holy, lingered to wonder how it is that I do not burn and yet am consumed.
And in this country of failure, the rain falling out of a black cloud in gold pieces there are none to gather, I have thought often
of the fountain of my people that played beautifully here once in the sun's light like a tree undressing.

Especially When the October Wind. 
Especially when the October wind With frosty fingers punishes my hair,
Caught by the crabbing sun I walk on fire And cast a shadow crab upon the land, By the sea's side, hearing the noise of birds, Hearing the raven cough in winter sticks, My busy heart who shudders as she talks Sheds the syllabic blood and drains her words.
Shut, too, in a tower of words, I mark On the horizon walking like the trees The wordy shapes of women, and the rows Of the star-gestured children in the park.
Some let me make you of the vowelled beeches, some or the oaken voices, from the roots Of many a thorny shire tell you notes, Some let me make you of the water's speeches.
Behind a pot of ferns the wagging clock
Tells me the hour's word, the neural meaning Flies on the shafted disk, declaims the morning And tells the windy weather in the cock.
Some let me make you of the meadow's signs;
The signal grass that tells me all I know
Breaks with the wormy winter through the eye.
Some let me tell you of the raven's sins.
Especially when the October wind
(Some let me make you of autumnal spells, The spider-tongued, and the loud hill of Wales) With fists of turnips punishes the land, Some let me make you of the heartless words.
The heart is drained that, spelling in the scurry Of chemic blood, warned of the coming fury.
By the sea's side hear the dark-vowelled birds.
Dylan Thomas

Text of poem -

Autumn.
Happy the leaves burnishing their own downfall. Life dances upon life's grave.
It is we who inject
sadness into the migrant's cry. We are so long in dying - time granted to discover a purpose in our decay? Could we be cut open, would there be more than the saw's wound, all humanity's rings widening only towards ageing?
To creep in for shelter under the bone's tree is to be charred by time's lightning stroke. The leaves fall variously as do thoughts to reveal the bareness of the mind's landscape
through which we must press on towards the openness of its horizons.

It's the equinox today (in about an hour, in fact), and autumn has shown it means business with a light frost this morning in Dolgellau.

Also, the fungal friends are fruiting willy-nilly all over the show!
