Fruit

Oranges, bananas, and grapes
tumble across the counter
in an unruly respite
between grocery store and fruit basket.

They brighten the room
with exotic colors
in the intermittent dusk
of fleeting rain clouds.

The tulips in my yard
also glow
peach and yellow
as if they
alone
hold back the dark.
