Before autumn punished the woods
with dew and leaves and coughing
children running late to school
wearing backpacks black as ravens
cawing tantrums in the wind,
I napped below a robin singing August,
golden in the luster of trees swaying gently
full of apples, waking with fresh clouds
to watch the sun and moon share the sky
at dusk.
