It’s okay to Fall
I got up today
The outside is gray
Full of clouds
I no longer felt the doubt
Taking one day at a time
My war cry had died down
The leaves are changing
The temperature has dropped
Reminding me that where things die
Something else comes back more alive
The outside is gray
Full of clouds
I no longer felt the doubt
Taking one day at a time
My war cry had died down
The leaves are changing
The temperature has dropped
Reminding me that where things die
Something else comes back more alive

Goodbye Summer
She tested us
Every way she could
Burned us to the ground
Sweat, humidity and frowns
That damn sun
Relentless
Long evenings
Moon lit calls
Walking with you
Sweet summer
Margaritas by the seaside
Lust in the air
No cares
Too hot
Too much rain
Too much traffic
Too much
It goes fast
Somewhere in August
Knowing this will end soon
Labor Day
Last call
We love summer
Hate the heat
Complaints
Melancholy has a way
Autumn on the horizon
Damn pumpkin...
Every way she could

Autumn in the Suburbs
Sometimes I think I'm just a murderer,
obsessed with one season,
stalking the red-gold woods and streets
with gloved hands and an ambition
to stain an oak tree red with blood
and thereby bring balance to creation.
Such absolute beauty
as autumn in the suburbs must
be paid for with a sacrifice.
I learned this holy fact when I was twelve
and hiding in the trees
I saw a man garrotte his love,
and leave it underneath a shroud
of crunchy, fallen leaves.
The lonely October unfurls,
a maid upon her silken bed. ...

Summer Countryside
Summer Countryside
Once alive yet never dead
Children’s spring summertime laughter echoes
In the air and skies overhead
Omnipresent love
Sunshine and breezes
Soft as doves
Morning light
Shining thru windows
Upon meadows warmth
Radiating from above
Flowers in bloom
Fields turning green and brown
Playgrounds full of joy
Till the rise of the new harvest moon
II.
Ghostly sounds echo in the cities
Suburbs and towns
The wind sweeps and howls
To the outskirts ...
Once alive yet never dead
Children’s spring summertime laughter echoes
In the air and skies overhead
Omnipresent love
Sunshine and breezes
Soft as doves
Morning light
Shining thru windows
Upon meadows warmth
Radiating from above
Flowers in bloom
Fields turning green and brown
Playgrounds full of joy
Till the rise of the new harvest moon
II.
Ghostly sounds echo in the cities
Suburbs and towns
The wind sweeps and howls
To the outskirts ...

Brisk walk, windchill
Leaves paint shadows on the sidewalk
A small flock of sparrows flit away
Avoiding my footfalls
A book tucked under my arm
I think of you fondly
It's the distance
Sending signals across the pond
Marred by fatal crossings
Leaves paint shadows on the sidewalk
A small flock of sparrows flit away
Avoiding my footfalls
A book tucked under my arm
I think of you fondly
It's the distance
Sending signals across the pond

The Call Of September
This mornin' i woke up nicely shaped, the Fall once more still faithful to its mist.
to its chilling mornings,its mystic face, full of unpredictable tomorrows..but
they harbinger good vibes,shining and sparkling in the dew drops
that adorn the budding grass of September..
Cheerful vibes vibrate in the air, with sun rays effortlessly seep thru' the mist
and fall mild and damp on the tender ground..
Gently walking upward, the winds talking, whispering, inspiring a cool theme
on my mind; a pastoral diction in my heart, where the hills follow...

Winter's Prose
In autumn's glow, the world begins to rest
And amber leaves descend in weathered flight
The summer's heat now finds a gentler quest
As chilly winds chase the lingering light
The trees, donning their robes of ember gold
Stand sentinel against the waning sun
Their branches reach with tales of seasons old
While shadows stretch as days are nearly done
The air is crisp, a breath of frost and pine
As harvests yield their bounty to the earth
The twilight hours in muted hues align
And nightfall's calm descends with...
And amber leaves descend in weathered flight
The summer's heat now finds a gentler quest
As chilly winds chase the lingering light
The trees, donning their robes of ember gold
Stand sentinel against the waning sun
Their branches reach with tales of seasons old
While shadows stretch as days are nearly done
The air is crisp, a breath of frost and pine
As harvests yield their bounty to the earth
The twilight hours in muted hues align
And nightfall's calm descends with...

Autumn dreams
Cool crisp breeze; caresses my face,
The leaves, the color of brown,
Golden brown eyes that stared into mine
A time left behind
A gentle smile
I wanted to stay for a while
I opened my eyes
There is no crisp breeze
For it was all a familiar dream
The leaves, the color of brown,
Golden brown eyes that stared into mine
A time left behind
A gentle smile
I wanted to stay for a while
I opened my eyes
There is no crisp breeze
For it was all a familiar dream

Late summer mornings
How I long for cooler days
Green and yellow shades

Maple Leaf of Seasons End
The clock strikes midnight.
As the 12th hour sets in,
under moonlit, stars and space'n time.
The rough maple leaf of seasons end ventures from roots and bark.
Independently slow, floating high and saying goodbye.
Drifting along, passing time with winds so calm.
The leaf once so green and smooth as silk, loses luster and fades away into natures heavenly orchard.
The rough maple leaf of seasons end enters the afterlife, surrounded by wooden fences and cherry flora.
Regaining color, regaining life, staying smooth and shiny for all time.
As the 12th hour sets in,
under moonlit, stars and space'n time.
The rough maple leaf of seasons end ventures from roots and bark.
Independently slow, floating high and saying goodbye.
Drifting along, passing time with winds so calm.
The leaf once so green and smooth as silk, loses luster and fades away into natures heavenly orchard.
The rough maple leaf of seasons end enters the afterlife, surrounded by wooden fences and cherry flora.
Regaining color, regaining life, staying smooth and shiny for all time.

Trees of Mellow
Leaves fall from the trees of mellow,
with a simple blow of natures hello.
Announcing to be known,
for it was mother natures evil clone.
All alone.
Alone to itself, yet not to the rest.
Nature opens herself to the world,
to relieve some excessive stress.
Stress that plays chess with human life.
Checking many, but few to none.
Getting too near would enhance ones fear.
Lone and behold, but stay in control.
Gusty winds cometh to sendeth,
vastly stretched miles.
Rotation is evident, yet very...

Dueling Mist
In misty veil, 'neath moon's pale glow,
Two duelists face where shadows grow.
Their sabres gleam with cold, sharp light,
Preparing for a fateful fight.
The fog, a shroud both thick and white,
Enfolds the night in eerie blight.
Yet in this gloom, the spirits glide,
Their ghostly forms drift side by side.
Eyes of spectres, hollow, cold,
Bear witness to the scene unfold.
Their whispered sighs, a chilling breath,
Foretell the clash of life and death.
Blades clash with a metallic ring,
A dance of death their weapons...
Two duelists face where shadows grow.
Their sabres gleam with cold, sharp light,
Preparing for a fateful fight.
The fog, a shroud both thick and white,
Enfolds the night in eerie blight.
Yet in this gloom, the spirits glide,
Their ghostly forms drift side by side.
Eyes of spectres, hollow, cold,
Bear witness to the scene unfold.
Their whispered sighs, a chilling breath,
Foretell the clash of life and death.
Blades clash with a metallic ring,
A dance of death their weapons...
