Tree and Sky

It's October and the leaves are turning colors. Today is chilly and drizzling here and I am indoors sitting beside a fire. It is the perfect time for a poem! Click the photos to enlarge.

Tree and Sky 

by William Carlos Williams

-- again 

the bare brush of 

the half-broken 

and already-written 

of tree stands alone

upon its battered hummock--- 

Above 

among the shufflings

of the distant 

cloud-rifts

vaporously 

opens the unmoving 

blue
