Fall Valentine

The filling-in of all the blanks
in the earth’s sentences
was summer’s task
and why the oceans
had to be included
as one of the mystery’s clues
overlooked by the solution
the only possible one
that the novel (of summer)
is done and I may not
read it again I may have
skipped over a certain
few chapters is all we get
now that the poem (of fall)
has unregrettably arrived
and one prepares
as best one can
to leave the earth again
