the summer people

the summer people
have gone
south
with their tans
and white clothes.
birds on wings
to sunny
states
along the lower
coasts.
their homes are bundled
up
for the storms
at sea.
the chilled
winds
of winter
that will arrive soon.
locked
tight with shutters pulled,
their homes are
left empty and waiting
for spring
and bare feet.
