"Leavings" by Anthony Abbott Leavings (for my father) Outside my window a gnarled old oak leans precariously on his elbow snarling at his successors wrapped smugly in their canvas diapers and waiting to be lowered into the hard winter earth. The other arm is gone, the socket painted closed with that preservative we use to keep the old from rotting. Knots bulge from his side like tumors. Still I think I like him better than all those thin skinned babies packed lightly in their little holes. He’s not so predictable. In the spring he’ll flower strangely and dance his own configurations in the wind. Bless you, older brother. May my leavings be so rich. from The Girl in the Yellow Raincoat (1989) by Anthony Abbott, who died this week and leaves a legacy in his great love of poems https://www.vivegriffith.com/poetry-box/2020/11/11/wild-geese-by-mary-oliver monthly 0.5 2020-11-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58a22f14a5790a100dc40932/1605135126027-E2QX3YOU0X4901A39G2S/IMG_0378.jpg This Week in the Poetry Box -
