Wind is up...

feels like fall


Lace the boots

stare at dirty dishes,

unswept floor


Clean the saw

cut some trees

waiting to be trimmed

literary topiary


Wild brush, thickets

wood thrush, crickets

orchestrate in meadows


Along Moody Mountain Road

only company all day,

wind

and a solitary spotted toad.
