Once the leaves finish falling, I watch the drops of rain glisten on the bare branches outside my kitchen window. This week I use the arun to celebrate the raindrops that arrive after fall's splendor.
Words
cannot
capture the
dazzling glory,
cascading splendor
So
I pause
to cherish
each moment of
exploding color
Soon
branches
stripped of color
shine with winter’s
glistening diamonds.
