Sundown Geese
By Don Iannone

Four Canadian geese
...out of formation
......fly
.........straight off
............into the setting sun.

No leaders
...just each following
......his own heart
.........on this lingering
............March evening
...............that wraps itself
..................in the creamsicle orange sunset
.....................painting its way
........................across the western sky.

One last glimpse
...of the fleeting foursome
......now just fading shadow shapes
.........disappearing
............into sundown's last breath.
