new season

there isn’t that comfort anymore
in my walk, stroll, gait, way
i feel being outside, exposed
searching for sun

i find instead the crisp quick chillness
of a new england autumn
must start bringing out leather, and sweaters
thinking of scarves and mittens that
expose my tips at will for cigarettes
i find myself searching for you

in the fields of bright faces, in pods of wool
even though you are not up this early
or up here at all
i seek you like the fleeting sun in my fall
