South
Star
The
leaves are falling on Griffith Avenue
They
lie there
Inches
deep along the Pavement
Just
crying
To
be walked through.
I
have no mind for shuffling in them
Any
more.
Besides,
I’m not even sure
If
they would welcome me.
They
seem to wait for you.
I
watch the stars.
Finding
The Plough
I
trace the North Star
Then
turning from it, face towards you
Even
if you never see me.
Someday,
I pray,
I’ll
find a South Star.
And
then,
I’ll
never have to turn my back again
To
find you.
