KB and KK's Excellent Adventure

Sharp scent of cinnamon—
Gnarled arms of apple trees
Bend toward Halloween
 

Narrow bars of black pupil
Search out hands holding paper cups:
Goat food: 50¢

Musty-fust of dusty museum:

Cobwebs crisscross a sewing machine while
Plastic rooster guards his coop
 

Hillside blanket of yellow and burgundy
Acres of fall chrysanthemums—
Surprising left-turn in the forest!
 

Large pig in small pen
Rolls rocks to mark time:
Sisyphus in a petting zoo
 

Mares’ tails draw wispy lines
On crisp cerulean skies—
Snap of fresh-picked Gravensteins…

(Katy Brown and I went scouring Apple Hill 
in search of adventure, 

and these are some of the things we found.)
