II: 170 welcome to Falling Leaves

Rumor has it, Fall is just around the corner in the UK.
For evidence, check out the new weblog, Falling Leaves,

Autumn as it unfolds," with poetry and images.



blinded by August sweat --
you can't see
autumn from here

after the flood --
daylilies line the banks




wettest June ever --
impatiens outlast
those fecund weeds
