in the weather comes

Gore Cove Track Series

 

an all embrace

and hastening home

 

the kind of music takes my hat

blows me along

leaves the ears exposed

 

it’s a sort of song

 

it’s every tree crazy

all dancing

way up high

with a fling and a flail

and there’s your leaf flown

 

find a hollow

shelter in

 

we ourselves are weather

 

sometimes I’ll stop for it

or I’m passenger

bent half to this whim

 

otherwise lurks

 

have you felt how the stream has its breeze?

 

weather’s here and it’s coming

been with us all along

 

just a touch of sky

 

in the clamber vine

in the leaf still spring

in the bay laid to its tide

 

after the weather’s gone

of course it’s still in the tree

 

and here’s a sun beside

just to show us all
