repose
by Gail Goepfert
breeze-tousled leaves
q u a k e
like spangles on a gypsy skirt
the windswept woods
dressed for autumn’s ball
undressed by sleep’s seduction
by the breath of wind’s whispered desire
bereft of color
frivolity and delay
the trees
their dance cards spent
pose one last time
for winter’s canvas
a still life–
ebony silhouettes
against an ivory sky
