Time
seems
to fly quicker
as
geese take flight
heading
south,
leaving
us stranded
in
their wake.
We
gaze skywards,
not
wanting
to
believe the arial V
is a
sign
of
victory for them,
perhaps
it is,
but
not for us
left
preparing
for
the long
dreaded
winter
ahead.
Stay
with us
we
call out
just
awhile longer
in
fields abundant of corn
yet...
autumns
colours
signal
their departure
and
we sigh...
