Walking In the Rain
Cool November day gains
watch the leafy colors change
as time too easily begins to slip away,
peach amber colors falling from display,
tawny striped wrens and sparrows happily in the flow
anticipating the arrival of winter cold and snow,
but in this moment beneath gray floating clouds
come drops of rain between falling canopy shrouds
blanketing the leaves wet and damp,
where shadows fade and disappear with seasonal stamps
in the autumn time of year beneath the harvest moon
you can walk safe, sheltered between the drops of mid-afternoon.
