Some summer left over

it was summer on the tongue
in the lagotto of evening strollers by
and how it played into the tree's voices
though the leaves rustled on the ground
the crispness called for coats
and the sun shone low
very low
as if it meant to slice the top off our sky
and let the cosmos in
it already seemed a bit thin up there
from the vantage of a park bench 
in october
