rococo clouds

The later sunrise is sometimes the only redeeming thing
about
cooler-weather mornings.
7:30 am now is when the sun is mid-sky on its way up.

When the sun-rays pour down through the changing red maples
lining the street, I feel I could never leave the North.

Come Fall,

come.

Fall.

The rain is here; hope evaporates with humidity.
Motion is an escape:
landscapes change, purposes temporarily shrouded.

Chills. Adrenaline. Frenetic movement.

The promise of fulfillment.
