 crawls through a blue sky
  on a bright Fall day.

a mundane landscape -
 impossible to look away:
  autumn colors

 painting sky & river --
  all else is black.

 the rains will freshen the fort,
  those walls grown green.

 and clouds glow brightly; its lack

 reflects the green world

 but see only the flowers

 in the understory,
  briefly catch the sun.
