Welcome to the Parent Trap

You are a field
of proud goldenrod
set in royal purple thistle
and laced with the wild, white flowers
of stubborn Queen Anne.
You have the back-sweet flavor
of ripe tomato,
the tart snap taste
of a cold winesap apple.
You bloom in your autumn--
this is the season
for which you were made.
Be a blaze
against my cold
my winter arms.

Kem Luther's "Autumn Lady" 1995
