Photo finish Friday: “Old cat”

Old cat

The old, stray cat sleeps

on the dry September grass.

Brittle leaves and dreams.

“Brittle”

Brittle

Dry September blooms — /

dead, brown, and brittle bouquet — /

your dark beauty shines.

“Leaf”

Leaf

The green drains away. /

The leaf dons its brittle coat, /

and waits for fall’s touch.

“Leaf”

This moment passes /

as does the next. Each a leaf /

supple, then brittle.
