a fall, how best to cope with

the waves of feeling?

Just wave them good-bye.

they are on their way elsewhere.

Should we abandon

these questions about questions

and go looking for some rhymes?

Like rhymes, our reasons

for asking all these questions;

to chime the passing seasons.

Now that July is

finally saying goodbye,

what would be a good send-off?

Whatever we try,

it will be with a dry eye,

giving July the brush-off.

Why does this passage of time

fail to imbue me with joy.

Joy resists schedules,

specific dates, appointed

times. It visits when it will.
