The light of lanterns is becoming cozier

The light of lanterns is becoming cozier
on cold and narrow august town streets.
Gold balls are shining over dark trees foliage,
creating lacy pictures on dark peel

of graphite asphalt. Light fresh breeze is touching them.
The dark-gray shadows are alive. The dance
is unrepeatable. It quietly hypnotizes
and time is flying, sending to the past

the summer evening. And vacation paradise
is making for the end. Hot chocolate milk
in a cute cafe warms: the loss doesn't seem so bad.
The autumn will erase the past indeed.
