The Steaming Cup: Indian Summer
http://steamingcup.blogspot.com/2010/10/indian-summer.html
Prose, Ponderings, and Poetry from a Coffee Drinking Life. Strength to the Weary. Friday, October 15, 2010. November bore a balmy morn. After a week of frost. And recalled September’s golden girl. We’d given up for lost. Nights grow long, yet chill relents,. Though nature’s half undressed. Abuela in a tattered gown,. Hair a graying mess. Winter is a callous aunt,. Summer her glowering son. But in Autumn’s muted madras,. A kind of sweetness comes. Amid the wreck of bloodied leaves. Dennis M. Kirschbaum.
