a carpet of amber -
fallen leaves flutter
their final diminuendo

a carpet of white -
a pair of cold magpies
print sets of maple leaves

a carpet of buzzing -
pink prunus blossoms
tempt Winnie ther Pooh bees

a carpet of red dust -
Rhodies* fluff feathers
in forty degree heat




*Rhode Island reds (hens)
