City leaves, keep their color
long into Novembers,
chartreuse and saffron hues
still aflutter on the avenues
while country cousins
dour and rust back home.
City leaves hold on
into their Decembers,
clinging to brittle leases
on reaches intended
for short-term stays
well after they’ve
crinkled brown
trying not to
snap
and
fall.
