Autumn’s First
The sun’s new slant is lighting things bright and oblique. This morning, in the thinning darkness, I could see my breath. Feathery plumes of seed now crown the ornamental grass in the front yard. Autumn’s first full day, and you can taste the new season in the air.
Summer flowed by too fast…but these new moments feel lush.
And I’m off for the next two days.
