JANE HUTTO
Learning Curve

I did not know the sun could be so cruel Or winter send such pale fingers of ice. But I am so much wiser now, you see, And seek to find some other way to thwart The whims of nature and the wiles of you. It took a bit of doing on my part . . . The searching out of filters and of screens; The closing up when cold was in the air And how to choose the proper arms to bear. Now a sort of calm becomes my respite, Now it's always autumn or a springlike Afternoon where scorch and chill can not a- Bide, for I have learned from you the places One can hide.

JANE HUTTO
When September Comes

When September comes, a lisp of summer in her wake, should birdsong cease while leaves their wardrobe change, then may I clasp old melodies to my heart, disclaiming all that swelters, aches, or faults, and casting like the sundial shadows long, hold fast and grapple for faint promises made on whispers in the wind.
