The Buzzard Above
Circling high above
A slow Ferris wheel ride; free
In carnival skies
Soulful Autumn blues
A crisp air and slow tempo
Solo turn on stage
A singular truth:
To know the limitless sky
Wing and a prayer
Swallows along Cinnamon Lane
The lane (bursting ripe
Hedgerows laden with late fruit)
Is your flightpath home
Crane flies, mosquitoes
Wasps, fruit flies, midge and darter
Alfresco mixed grill…
A flash of summer!
Then two more; swallow wings dip
The deepening lane
