tall weathered tree
clouds and blue sky
fill the spaces
where branches
no longer grow

Gold Leaves and Wind
gold leaves and wind
clouds and blue sky
dishes washed
and reading poetry
grateful for this day

POEMS FROM OOSTBURG, WISCONSIN
Autumn views
from the window
by my desk many years
and this year
the most beautiful
some time
some time
in my small study
so I do not miss
small gold leaves
in the wind
always seems
always seems
a short time
tiny rows of corn
grow tall in fields
and then the harvest
grey sky and blue
grey sky and blue
a tree that will lose
its leaves and
rest awhile
grow anew
Monday
Monday
and planning
the week
what will grow
what should rest
