autumn 2010
chill wind —
a red poppy
on his frayed lapel
the weight of a crow
on the tip
of a fir
dry cattails
the fading drone
of traffic
each footprint shaped
from within and without —
autumn rain
lakeside turtle —
a child tosses aside
his hoodie
autumn sunset
sometimes a dream
is only a dream

summer's end
shore pilings —
the thin line between
summer and fall
