One Fine Fall

                                                One Fine Fall Day

                                    The fat, wild geese will leave me soon,

                                    initiate their noisy exodus.

                                    A brown tweed chain, they waddle

                                    through the rustling autumn colours

                                    and slice into the speckled autumn sky.

                                    This flight’s a practice run.

                                    Tomorrow when their bags are packed,

                                    they’ll say their last goodbyes

                                    to summer.

                                    I can’t afford the trip,

                                    though God in heaven knows

                                    I wish I could.

                                    I wonder, watching in my third floor flat,

                                    if I'll survive the colours of this fall.
