LASTLY

When the last dry leaf

of the last tree fall

and the last willow

don't have anyone to cry for

Who will care about autumn?

When the last bird

fly for the last time

who will be the last

in remembering a hummingbird?

When we will look at the last sunset

Who will remember Sara Teasdale?

Who will declaim WILL COME SOFT RAINS

And who in this infinite universe

would like to remind us

even a little

even if it is for the last time?

For LASTLY
