Squirrel finds apple,
spins it like corn on the cob —
leaves the core for me.

He eats the apple,
spins it like a cob of corn —
leaves the core for me.

Under the apple tree
harvesting gold
she leans
on the last flush of summer
and dreams.
Bees gather her calm,
spiders spin up the sun
and high above, breezes
start painting the sky –
for tomorrow
the woolly clouds come.
