MARCH SUNDOWN
One more day of March
and this one dies in pastels edged
in rust, and ashen clouds of lilac trim.
Color, light, shape, and shade
cannot be caught on camera,
cannot be captured on film,
and so we try to limn with feeble
words the fugitive that flees our net,
hoping to preserve these images
in the scrapbook of the mind.
