Canada geese. What leaf is small and black and falls more slowly than a feather? A fire dances up in the trash burner, the brightest thing.

  1. What leaf is small and black and falls
    more slowly than a feather?

    What ink washes deeper blue
    then sable as it nears the shore?

    What crystal spangles every
    lidded eye on trees and bushes?

    What letter writes itself over
    and over in the wind?

    A fire dances up in the trash burner,
    the brightest thing.
