Janice Canerdy Poet Footle

Transitions, II

this year
mid-fall

feels like
mid-spring

in the
Deep South

highs in
eighties

breaking 
records

shorts and
flipflops

still worn
daily

forecast
warning—

cold front’s
coming

that’s no
surprise

time to
find those

gloves and
jackets

toss those
wilting

mums and
pansies

mourn not
loss of 

mid-fall
mildness

winter’s
coming

with her
wealth of

unique
beauties
