Walk by the Reservoir


Fall bleeds its chill into midsummer rain.
I defy the encroaching season,
refuse to change my sandals for suffocating shoes.

This splash of moisture was the ocean a moment ago .
I am digging my painted toes into the warm gold sand of memory,
denying this momentary chill its power.
