everyday i sweep the leaves off
the porch with
full knowledge that
come tomorrow
their brothers and sisters
will rise up in

is my head lopsided? She asked her groom

Magic:

a grand sweeping hand
obscuring insight,
commanding demand
with energies bright
to seize and appease
while motions most sleight
corrupt to disrupt
when skeptics indict.

Unfolding your 
Paper mache wings
Greeting this
Reddish brown
Mahogany wind 
Yes, sweeping 
These golden leaves, 
Swirling you, again
Around this

I shuffle through the rustling leaves,
As others fall like rain;
I love the shades of reds and golds -
But sweeping up’s a pain!

Our Rentrée

And then, just before we reach
the summit of our low climb,
the sweeping searchlight of
the Eiffel Tower signals our
return in the bright night sky.

We're home.
Holiday's over.
Back to work.

Misrepresentation of life
In constricting colors
They tell a different story
That my ears prefer to hear
You’re sweeping strokes across
A paper waiting to be filled
And you’re dedicating it to me
