An Early Fall
The Summer closes in an early Fall,
late August with the maples' leafy bleed.
Now crimson whispers echo sirens' call
of nascent frost, to nestle unborn seed,
to glow in fire, then ginger, and indeed,
though swans sing not the day on which they die,
the summer trills its blazing final cry.
