Notes About The Poem


 

Darker-Days Bliss

Altitude of Autumn—
   bitty kites
   without strings attached
   from God’s cache.
Over the top joy—
     elixir of Jack Frost,
    Jacques Torres chocolate,
    crackling of hearths.
Vouchsafed variegation
     of leaves,
     mulligan and goulash,
     the swaddle of sweaters.
Patch of giant and itty bitty
      crocks of seeds
      and mellow pulp
      to be roasted and pie’d,
      then lit.
Impresario of Fall—
      twirls and dips,
      brightens and lightens
      in darker-days bliss.

The hot chocolate was to die for! My son, being a chef, wanted to check it out. Mmm…so good!
