Almost Autumn...

Crisp Apple Morning,
Color beginning to change,
not because of the Temperature
(as is commonly Believed)
but because of the change
in Light,
how the angle
and the Distance
have Diminished and Strengthened
as Shadows lengthen
as you slow your pace
and gather your Breath
cursing your Good Intentions
and, say,
have I told you
I have heard mention
"One is punished best
for One's Virtues"
Lawdy, yes,
how I've come to Believe
in this
and so much more is True...
 
See the Breeze,
cannot be felt
behind windows,
room sized and thermal;
the flag as it flutters
give the wind's speed and direction;
all that is need3d
is an eye patch and a parrot,
if you make the connection,
playful, confection of a Day,
who would have it
any other way?...
