The Book of the Wind .154.

Posted on October 23, 2016October 23, 2016 by shannontatejonas

 

Every day is Sunday

in this house.

The lilt of the June rain

glancing off the corn leaves.

I read a word for every night I have lived.

The words do not come easily,

the nights never soon enough.

I left a book of poems

in the woods on a stump,

for anyone to find, unaware.
