End of Summer
Praire:
your sweet
end-of-summer
perfumes,
how you lean
and sway,
a little tired,
into the autumn
to come:
please carry me
through the cold
into the deep down
hidden surprise
of spring.
your sweet
end-of-summer
perfumes,
how you lean
and sway,
a little tired,
into the autumn
to come:
please carry me
through the cold
into the deep down
hidden surprise
of spring.
