Yellowwood, 1980
We’ve missed the colors
By a week or so.
The hills now are a latticework of trees.
Even the water is intricate
As the wind sweeps shards of light
Toward the shore.
The blue air shimmers
Where it meets the distance
Brandishing the skeletons of sleep.
Brandishing the skeletons of sleep.
