Autumn's Embrace
Because we are poets
We feel so much
Fall's sudden brisk temperature
Releasing us from summer's hold
Sudden rummaging through draws
Finding sweaters long tucked away
Sleep has been better
Morning's crisp and dog walking faster
I covered you up
Blanket askew
You lay exposed to my hungry eyes
Morning desire to have and to hold....

Poetry is often about the tie up at the end...
Guess that could be interpreted many ways depending on the person...
Thanks BIG O !

It's often sudden in autumn.
One minute still sweating on a warm full day, next minute shivering...
I'm glad to Iive where there are seasons though...
Thanks Stoney ✋

It came to me this morning while walking my dog. She often has a skip in her step but the last few days she's been downright cheerful...
Thanks Willow !!
Appreciate the RL !

This is unusual but I don't recall exactly how I did this painting. If I had to guess I'd say it was watercolor pens and some other kind of blending. I'm always trying out new techniques and often use watercolor, gouache and lately oil pastels. That's the great thing about abstraction... anything goes.
The words I took out of my desk drawer and rearranged them .. humor ......
Many thanks ID !

This does look like a soft fall morning. To me it still has hints of summer though, almost like you don’t want to let go. Maybe that’s why your last stanza is so sweet.
Just my interpretation.
I totally dig this. How could I not? It’s PS style.

Yes, you're right Mary
Prefer 60's and 70's Temps so a little wistful when the real feel was in the 30's this morning ...
We all have a style. Often I think my writing is a little clunky but this one did have a good feel. Dang thing wrote itself.
I shouldn't complain about weather to you.
Not sure how your survive all that snow ...
Thx on this entry

I like the cold too.
Just have to get used to it ..
The painting does have a feel.
I can’t remember how I got that effect.
I did it about a year ago ..
Thx S !

Lovely colour choices.
It's so beautiful here this time of year. Another week or two and all the leaves will be gone, and we'll be into the gray season... melancholy galore.
Give the doggy a scritch from me!

Enjoy it babe
The gray zone takes a lot of hooch to get through ...
Onyx is doing well. Ever since I changed her food and got her off the expensive science diet, she's much happier and peppier ..
Crazy
Thx on the art and stuff ..

I wish we had four seasons down here! But luckily there's your brisk write to cool the air .
Thank you for that! I've always said that it's easier to warm up on a cold morning than it is to cool off on a hot day. Why why do I stay in this God forsaken weather!
Thanks for the awesome display of chill, fine sir!

Re: Re. Autumn's Embrace
I love autumn.
Something so organic about the change of seasons. Though it's still pretty warm up north. Yo yo's between 75 and 40 ....weird science.
Gonna try and get down to South Florida this winter for a spell. Been since before the pandemic, I'm ready to reintroduce myself.
Maybe I'll run into you at the Miscue Lounge ...
Thx Mark
