FIRST DAY OF FALL (NON-TECHNICALLY)

September 21, 2006

the sun shines on my face
just long enough
to keep me from getting cold

the sun
and shade from the trees
alternately warming and cooling my face

i speak from a place of privilege
as one who has known the warmth of the sun
and can appreciate its shine because of the shade

and the dark because of the light
