Abstract

You would think by Autumn one would know

That blue cornflowers close at night,

That raccoons call to each other down at Blossom Creek, .

That dry corn stalks speak of winter to the moon.

In Spring,

l stole swiftly through the flowers· and the corn

To see her,

Whom I chased that summer through the cornfields,

Chased her down the rows that whispered in the night,.

Until I caught her and we fell in love.
