Warm Fall Day

So breezy

Warm fall day 

Shining sun

Much to say.

–

Breezes blow

Swaying trees

Dusty air

Thank you please.

–

Parks are full

Playgrounds too

Screaming kids

Joyful view.

–

Some will swim 

In warm pools

Soak up rays 

They’re no fools.

–

People dance

Music plays 

Beat goes on 

Night and day.

–

End this jaunt

Good times had

Warm fall days

Never bad…

Fall Harvest Bounty 

The crops are ready

The time is now

Work them rocksteady

Get off your plow.

–

Grab all the baskets 

Fill them to the top 

Work and be tacit 

As you harvest the crop.

–

Time is of the essence

Make your work fast

Only with your presence

Can this bounty last.

–

With aggregate need 

You tussle and toil 

So that many will feed 

From this fertile rich soil.

–

Grab the trucks

And your van 

Load them with your bounty 

As fast as you can.

–

For hunger grows 

In this small town 

God only knows 

This horrible noun.

–

The trucks are gone 

With food in tow 

The fields move on

With new crops to grow…

Clouds in a Pre-Fall Sky

Crispy wispy clouds 

A gorgeous, blue, pre-fall sky

Nothing shared aloud

I wonder to where they fly?

If I knew I would tell you

–

And that is no lie

My honesty for beauty

Quite truthful, I try

It’s my artistic duty

To share and never be shy…

Seasons Unique 

Springtime everything’s alive 

Green teaming with such life

Longer days promised.

–

Summer’s endless adventures

Vacations reunions cruises, time off

Beaches deserts mountains.

–

Falls cooling breezes

Promises of winter goodbye heat

Hello pumpkin spice.

–

Winter had arrived

Rainer cooler days, longer nights

Holidays and birthdays.

–

Four seasons yearly

Each with its own personality

And quite unique…

Walk Into Fall’s Splendor 

Trees bend to the will off the air

Moving gently without a care.

–

Softly rustling and tussling not a tout 

A mere whisper as they move about.

– 

Cool breeze through the trees has its say

Early suggestions of winter as it may.

–

Leaves suddenly turn, and fall to the ground

As they do, hardly making a single sound.

–

Yellows, tans, oranges and reds 

Flow like feathers above our heads.

–

No bugs around the forest deep 

Early entering a seasons long sleep.

–

A chimney smokes and fills the air 

A sweet-rich scent beyond compare.

–

The sky in fall is a different kind of blue

All who like up know that it’s true.

–

Not much time left, sunshine’s shorter 

Winter happens in less than a quarter.

–

Leaves cover the ground so much 

That every step results in crunch.

–

As it darkens, I tire, and venture home

For hot apple cider to warm my bones…
