*Observations and Thoughts on Sunday Afternoon
*Observations and Thoughts on Sunday Afternoon:
The cold steady rain
has pressed itself against the
has pressed itself against the
bold anthem of June
Nestled crickets hushed
in soggy grasses waiting
for the Summer burn
A frog and raven
rasp and bark at the red dawn
reaching for the moon
The brawn of the Oak
is the memoir of Winter
is the memoir of Winter
Its hope, the acorn

The form and content are so comfortable together, nice work. Especially fond of “A frog and raven /
rasp and bark at the red dawn /
reaching for the moon” — beautiful.
