cause

salvia dancing pale

wood grey green

as the new

quickly turns old

dickcissel calling the wind

the wind responding with

a rush through

the alfalfa field

soft sway butternut

honeyed light licking

surfaces' curve

evening dew

post-thunderstorm droplets

amass on anthurium's reach

each leaf a sparkling pond

of topaz gems that nourish

the darting cobalt dragonflies

surrounding sound

of crickets' elation

and bullfrogs' wonder

of sun at set
