Fall Song

By Joy Harjo

It is a dark fall day.
The earth is slightly damp with rain.
I hear a jay.
The cry is blue.
I have found you in the story again.
Is there another word for ‘‘divine’’?
I need a song that will keep sky open in my mind.
If I think behind me, I might break.
If I think forward, I lose now.
Forever will be a day like this
Strung perfectly on the necklace of days.
Slightly overcast
Yellow leaves
Your jacket hanging in the hallway
Next to mine.
Washington, D.C., 2022 - A lovely coffee with dear Washington, D.C., 2022 - A lovely coffee with dear Miami friends and fellow travel writers who are now Madrileños. It was wonderful to reconnect. 

Que se repita! Let's do this again!
