Linger Longer

Morning sun backlights
yellow-gold cottonwood leaves.
Breathing into change.

*****

Love the colors,
Love the vibrance,
Love the change …

Or do I?

Sometimes I want the yellow-gold leaves
To stay a little longer.

Let me keep
This image.
This feeling,
This blue sky,
This crisp air,
This particular quality of light …

Let me linger
In the in-between.
