Greening
My sister's Angela's new
celery eco-green Toyota Prius.
My brother Jeremy's former
wrecked plain green Camaro.
A new greenish—
gray back deck.
My brother-in-law's Torelli emerald green,
and scarlet red bike, Italian fitted and built.
Several greenish gray
eyes from dad, grand dad.
Scarves, gloves, hats in
bright autumn green for colorful poet.
Greenish swimmer's
bleached hair.
Forest or olive blouses or
coats or new furniture.
Green limbs, Douglas fir and Noble branches, found
fallen
in Sunnyside Road or later Pringle creek
in a late December snow storm.
The
evening is coming
Friend Aleksey writes
in Russian and English
on note paper in air port seats.
Days city likes city
People like people
The evening is coming.
We wait
after a dance trip to Chicago,
after waiting and dancing in city.
We danced while waiting for a late evening
train,
a late train in evening.
