Truest Colors
truest colors
a seasonal farewell that always feels final

over our fence
the mechanical whine
whisks the fall offerings

down the aisles of tall men.
gratitude this season heaps
in the grass with love,

collected from stoic parishioners.
air flowing up to the shiny god,
sucked dry in sanctuary.

wind offers more oratory:
thank you friends for colors
adding to our breezes.


         you have all been to me
         pure poetry like trees,
         always humbling my heart.

         if I could live one more season,
         show you my truest colors,
         that would be pleasing.
