The rain had stopped -
Water dripped from the branches of the apple tree -
Disordered clouds filled the sky -
It was dark by mid afternoon -
A blackbird feasted upon a windfall -
I watched it carve the apple into a fragile crown -
It became aware of my gaze and flew away -
The rain fell once more -
The raindrops washed summer from the grass -
