Reading at the Cabin

Please expand by clicking.


I built the season's first long fire

and heard the geese above the roof,

heard them calling each to each

over the guttering flames,

looked through candlelight and glass

to watch them in their angle

cross the pewter sky

above a weave of limbs

and felt the passing of the day,

the season, year, a life.
