To Every Season

For Bill B:

Come summer, I long
For winter; in winter I
long once more for spring.
Come Autumn, I’m contented
But for everything dying.

The Last Waltz

Annuals drag their
End-of-summer blooms–saggy
Marathon dancers.

Big Dipper

Food is seasonal:
Hummus-loads all summer–fall,
It’s baba ganoush.
