DRIVING HOME WELL SPENT
inspired by Emily Dickinson
~L. Page
Driving home well spent
Soft evening just before
An autumn rain ready
To burst, just drops more
On the windshield
Sparkles against a black
Backdrop, the first few
Fallen leaves blown back
Across the pavement
Solitary colored swirls
Breaking the proclamation
Distant lightning crawls
Whisper of a hint
Of wet dirt and the cover
Canopy of droopy clouds
Just in the wait to pour
(c) 1999 Leah Randelle
