Fall’s leaves are redder than
 spring’s flowers, have no pollen,
 and also sometimes fly, as the wind
 schools them out or down in shoals
 or droves: though I
 have not been here long, I can
 look up at the sky at night and tell
 how things are likely to go for
 the next hundred million years:
 the universe will probably not find
 a way to vanish nor I
 in all that time reappear.
