Leaf Fall
April 4, 2013
He waved
Something I would normally respond to
That coat, his worn pack
It made me quake that morning
Nothing could be considered unusual that morning
Fall fog had it’s presence,
Impending,
Something light couldn’t overlay
And the sun would lend no help at dawn
The same glacial farmhouse stood,
The occupants unexceptional
But prior they lost their child
The noise and light hit
The shade stared into the glare of the bus
He morphed into an explosion of leaves
The crunch of leaves under tires
