Summer’s end

By Zee Zahava (stanzas 1, 3, 5) and Bill Waters (stanzas 2, 4, 6)

early September

lazy clouds

lazy me

 

floating on the breeze

a puff of milkweed fluff

 

heading toward the lake

seventy-six white butterflies

three dragonflies

 

weathered dock

my toes in the water

Queen Anne’s lace in my hair

 

a neat pile of cherry pits

lined up beside me

 

melting into the lake

a sherbet sun . . .

summer’s end
