serendipity in a paradox #12

Change


Caught in
autumnal
incessant
hazey heat
reflections,

the first storm
urges
before it
a windforce-cold
sand-bit feel.

Dearest low 
barometric
dive
lifts me
from my seat.

See, there
blown
upon gusts
three turkey vultures
play with it's force,

bringing my eyes
winging
out of my head
so my heart
can watch the leaves
change.

  2. Quite a title. Fall does make the eyes bug out. For sure.

  3. Beautifully intricate. It is so hard to capture and convey the special feelings those very complex events and transitions can produce.

    On the wind, I feel the warmth,
    like the town where I was born

    Blowin' down a two lane road,
    it rides just like the one back home

    __The ugly Turkey Vultures... and yet, there is that contrary beauty they show, as they soar in the winds. _m
