honk if you get it

by Kristina Woodhill

Geese have been pointing
our way into autumn
this past week
asking as they fly
overhead
if we understand
their directions
this time around

I haven't heard the geese here yet, but the chilly autumn mornings with their call to bring along the sweater...

That is great! We should give such good directions! But many of us don't even know up from down.

You've caught one of the essences of Fall in this succinct and colorful poem.

I'm honking. Fascinating take one of nature's most captivating bi-annual events; it's always nice to see them come back in the Spring. :o)

I'm honking. I get it! A grand poem for this time of year. I've heard the geese already.
