Minuet in a Cape Cod Wood



Leaves fa
         ll
           in 
             g down
sl owly on forest 
            floors,
beneath 
Ilium trees
and fantastic skies.
sp las h es of buttermilk clouds
decorate the azure field
         above
 the autumn foliage,
that winter's kiss promises
        to cover
       in snow.
