Can You Feel Her In The Air?
Lining the bed in flannel
a chill has come
The passages of skin
fading into
longer dresses
and sleeved arms
Layers upon the geography
bodies cloaked
for the return of Autumn.
Her cool breath,
alleviating the humidity
collecting in the pits
She has her own spells to cast.

Curtain Call
Shakespeare was right 'all the world is a stage, and all the men and women merely players'.
It's no wonder then that as I age I'm no longer the star of the show.Still on the stage but only just. Consigned to the background as an act of kindness.Audiences once held spellbound by my skill and vigour, now lean back in their seats with jaws wide open.
As I forget my lines and the makeup artists can no longer conceal the sagging blotchy skin, the thinning hair or the droopy eyes.They gasp as one as I move Biden like across the stage.Fearful I might stumble,fall and shatter bones...

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....

drifting (my favorite season)
how these
seasons
drifting,
each tied
but break
apart,
i glimpse
asking
towards
what
remains
unfolding,
i'm halted
when each
season's
beauty
complicates
choosing.
