Another, Please

In nearly three hours, the temperature

has risen three degrees.  And in the last

minute, one.  The duration of cold

and the elongation of warmth in early 

fall makes me feel as if I’m in a meditation

hall of autumnal splendor, the voice

out of the whirlwind whispering.

Me smiling at the koans I can never

solve but still say, “Another, please.”

The frost melting in front of me.
