out of view
I read autumn poems
while my wife talks to a friend,
their light laughter
lifts me from the page

all the time
ending and beginning
the universe

 

 

sky blue seen through shade
thin crescent...
Cayuga in sunset afterglow
after the sunset
after the sunset on the water
bottle In the garage on the window sill watching the days come and go ...
the silence of the ages before us...
Queen Anne's Lace clenched
first day of school
oak trees have been dropping a bumper crop of always neat looking acorns...
oak trees have been dropping a bumper crop of always neat looking acorns..
oak trees have been dropping a bumper crop of always neat looking acorns
