mangetsu

cold silver

yesterday’s rice spoon

in the gutter

yayoi

snow melt

slowly

the shadows grow

late august’s early fall

nights
draw in
as summer’s colours
fade
to fall

**

leaves fall
in august
that ‘no’ still echoes
above
the waning sun

**

Cape Cod
through the rain
my mouth is dry

**

rereading
old love letters
yesterday’s candle wax
