Out on the back porch,
An old dog buries his nose
In the morning news.

The old Chevy coughs,
Lights up and exhales
A cloud of blue smoke.

A clouded sun drifts
In and out like a distant
Radio station.

Biting its top lip,
Hand held high, a mailbox waits
Patiently to speak.

Lying on its side,
An empty watering can
Tinkles in the rain.

First few drops of rain —
Footprints in a black and white
Film with Claude Rains.

The grass is so lush
The longest strands seem to clutch
My boots as I pass.

Savoring the sweet
Scent of yellowed paperbacks —
Breath of autumn leaves.
