pond wine comes to brittle birch
this once the leafage
slows a season and predicted
snow encases even earlier than
said this forest and this
neighborhood

traced blue across the instant
reach of long line copious
endearments make a home
and you can listen in
to tuba practice for example
dark brass on the rampage
through the bass clef

little pinpricks of incessant silver

of these scattered blooms

unmarked because because because

life

sunshine rich sunshine
pours on
land

lumens in sentences
wind around
curves
