Now, something’s completely gone.
Though it’s sunny outside

it’s fundamentally changed.
No more heat. And yesterday,

melodramatic clouds
threatened downpours,

occasionally made good
on it. But all fall really is

is the short-lived
adolescence of winter,

at least here
it gets old fast.

    I relate to this. It’s happening here, too. I love the stanza breaks. My favorite phrases “melodramatic clouds” and “short-lived adolescence of winter”. So good.
