daughter and her son
I walk through leaves to their gate
Autumn has begun

autumn leaf on ground
raindrops were caught in its curl
mouse drinks from old bowl

man perched on rooftop
a bird flies by, hits window
one a choice, one not

If I had not life
I could not die
which is the gift?
one the paper
the other a bow
opened only by God

white petals of joy
light moving across flower
while others sleep in
