"Augusts and Emperors"--Poem+Picture--August 28, 2019


"Augusts and Emperors"
See Christ Here Poem+Picture--August 28, 2019

Caesar Augustus thought
naming a month for himself
would make his legacy last forever.
But here it is, late summer
and the first orange leaf of fall
reminds me that
Augusts and emperors do not last,
and the only way to accept this world
is with its fragility.
