Sunday in CinCity

by Patricia Fargnoli



Should the Fox Come Again to My Cabin in the Snow


Then, the winter will have fallen all in white
and the hill will be rising to the north,
the night also rising and leaving,
dawn light just coming in, the fire out.

Down the hill running will come that flame
among the dancing skeletons of the ash trees.
I will leave the door open for him.

  1. Love that image of dancing skeletons. Very timely for the day of the dead in Mexico and the Toussaint in France which just passed by...

    Hope all is well with the magpies in Cin City.
