Summer Changes

My mind wonders over the leaves

in directions the wind blows,

in one direction then the opposite,

flushing sharp points across the

way, my mind wonders this way

and that.  Never stopping for a moment's breath

never, no, forever wondering this way and that.

My mind ponders over the way 

the leaves gather, still.  Until

the wind brushes them into any direction,

this and that, no way there but

everywhere here.  My mind wonders,

it ponders well.  Deep into my inner mind,

Until I understand the nature of summer, 

a nature I know is warm as the weather,

when it wants to be humid and pollinated,

as the bees and wind that scatter 

the seeds of life giving flowers.
