In September, I said
I’d like to see the maples
Somewhere before the winter
Just like four years ago

But I was only waiting for the buses
Between school and home

Last week, sky rained
My jeans were too long to stay dry
Others seemed to ignore the water on their heads

Then I said
I wanted the sun to shine the leaves

October 29th, Wednesday
The sun shines again
I skipped all the classes
To watch leaves fall
