red and then orange
though for fall the green has yet
to let go at last


(don’t mean to be on a one-trick pony about fall, but I’m glad to be arriving here and now, now and here)


evergreen complains
you bring on fall all you want
we know how we’ll stay


(this one seems to have come out all its own, as it were on its own)
