flocks of geese fly by
in V formation
silhouetted against
the evening sky
a lone heron heedless
of their departure
clouds so close
you can almost hear
their wings brush them
as leaves on trees
and shrubs begin to
show a sprinkling
first of color then
gradually spreading
to cover
as though artists
hidden in the guise
of fairies
have used them as
their canvas
to paint the
coming of Fall
