Disasters, Delights and Other Detours - 80. Leaves
Over distant clouds
beams emerge through gold branches
in the stained-glass dawn.
Catalpas remain
clothed in their bright green garments,
bared only at frost.
Near leafless poplars
shiver in the morning breeze,
grieving and silent.
Leaves flee from the wind
like kids dancing and leaping,
at play in the sun.
Fallen, they now flow,
reflected flames on the creek
between the maples.
Countless orange stems
lie deep on the forest floor
whispering of June.
