Wrinkled paper

Opening again, /

wrinkled wrapping paper. /

I hear it, too — rain.

“Passing whisper”

Passing whisper

Half-moon passes /

among the bare fall branches, /

whispering goodbye.

“Down and up”

Down and up

Dead leaves drift down. /

Young cat scrambles up the tree. /

Rain and clouds depart.

Photo finish Friday: “Dappled November”

Dappled November

Dabbled sidewalk. /

Sunlight footfalls through bare limbs. /

November travels.
