10.12
Blowsy, blustery pooh-like
days, high limbs whipping in
the bursts, leaves fluttering
across fields where young
men turn the days of autumn
in one last battlefield for
school honors.
Pleasure. crispness. oxygen
enhanced, chlorophyll depleted
colors open up a feast of beauty
before the sparse times
come.
No matter.
this moment
is all that is needed
for appreciation.
