Approaching Winter (Four Variations)

(C) R.L.K.

1.
sunday afternoon:
the clouds are stretched flat over
the snow-covered hills

2.
under a just gone
gray sky an old bicycle
leans against a shed

3.
just after sunset;
a page of old newspaper
clings to a park bench

4.
the empty swing in
the backyard sways in the wind...
time, and time again
