Hurricane

February 05, 2014  •  Leave a Comment

I wrote this poem after Hurricane Bob swept across Cape Cod in August, 1991.

 

Hurricane

 

A hurricane wind

            rips across an August Cape.

The beast quickly passes...

            October shadows live on.

 

Brown, brittle leaves from salt spray;

Green, spring-like growth from warm winds.

Life, confused.
