But not yet (Day 914)

Restless afternoon oven-hot 

wind lashing at dry leaves

soon it will begin to sound 

like autumn rustling stirring 

in treetops at the edges colors 

will fade and burn but not yet 


How different we are you say 

you are surprised but I have 

known this secret all along we 

are promised to our lavender 

goodbye one day you’ll wake to

find yourself alone but not yet
