Pecan Year revised

Please bear with me as I tinker with this online.

Pecan Year*

With staccato notes they strike,

rolling like billiards

down the shed’s freshly tarred roof.

Gathered together, their hulls clack softly—

A shy child’s blocks in a silver bowl.

Each ebony streak contains a universe,

each mottled shell a native land. ” alt=””>

*Like many pecan trees, ours only bears fruit every other year.
