Falling. Falling.

Late water hyacinth petals

Pink-plop lazy stilled

Mirrors.

Minnows--red tails

Swaying--swaying

Willow-shaded

Warm shallows.

Late summer cloud-

Plumps

And the sky is sticky--

Plum sweet as

Children lean into Fall,

Dream into sleep,

Sleep into years...

Falling. Falling.

Bundling purples,

Pinks, reds, greens

Into pages of pressed

Memories.
