Threshold

School starts this coming Monday, so even though we have another month of summer, we're on the edge of the new season.



Here's a short poem by Howard Nemerov:




When in still air and still in summertime
A leaf has had enough of this, it seems
To make up its mind to go; fine as a sage
It's drifting in detachment down the road."


-  Howard Nemerov, Threshold
