Entrance
A chill turns
the sun's doorknob slowly
pressing on its gold light,
opening to the view
of Autumn's ripe storage.
A mother watches her child
stand on the table
reaching to pull chestnuts
from their quilled husks.
Leaves shake
like a string of bells
and they know,
country woman and girl,
the wind has come in,
wearing a starched apron
of frost.
