Orange

Orange is the colour of trouble,
a warning to be still
and look around you
for the hunter's pit
beneath a carpet of leaves,
the cliff edge
behind a screen of trees.

The sleeper stirs and turns
unaware that love has left
in the early hours of dark.
Unconscious of the cooling
pool of sheet beside him.

In his dream the sky is alight
with carrot coloured flames
of angel hair.
