he witnessed for acceptance
and imperfection

lost female Wood Duck

misses migration formation

now "woman alone"

September early & late

fall will never come
and then it arrives early
on the wings of geese

heading off an argument

Cormac McCarthy:
I don't aim to get in a
discussion about that.

summer wanes, geese return

triple-digit heat
Canadian geese flew north
but now they're back

days grow shorter

the days grow shorter
sun up one minute later
sunset one sooner

beginning of summer's end

many thunderclaps
cool rain falls on dry ground
summer is ending
