Cathy

Dry leaves break dusty Autumn

And saltine cracker crushed

Announce her name

A shy stutterer hiccoughs,

A footstep scrapes a gravel path

With the sounding of her name

The baa-ing of sheep,

Bawling of calves,

Wail her name

Irish breezes waft

Over wet sod fields

Hearing her name

A rustle of tulle skirt,

A door latch clicking shut

Speak her name

Prickly, sweet fruit trace

Challenges with a swoop

And loop-de-loop to finish

The singing of her name
