hill country
autumn comes early up in the hills
our seasons pay no nevermind
to the artifice of the calendar
summer dies young
winter lives long
and sometimes it seems there's no spring at all
but fall is my favorite
when the color gets going
every leaf is a masterpiece in miniature
the air so crisp you can catch the tang
of pinesap
when the wind blows the right way
and the sky - the sky!
carnelian tinged with the jade of old peking
rainbow shades of topaz
that leave you looking for adjectives
and when the sun begins to sink
an invisible hand dusts everything in gold leaf
as the last pale sapphire melts into the trees
so even though the skeeters are B52s
and more often than not mud season means
you have to call somebody
to haul you out of the mire at least once
and i curse the snow that buries the woodpile
sometimes 'til may
the jewelled weeks of autumn keep me
a prisoner of these hills
