Falling
Southern Hemisphere
Northern Hemisphere
Like sleeping companions tugging the suns warmth from each other
One hoarding it, one exposed
And leaves quivering like exposed limbs
Until the trees jettison them like paratroopers
Each one swings in the currents chilly
As if held by an oscillating string
A succession of falling pendulums
