I ran this morning
On ice and snow
The trees glisten
The ice fairies glow
I hear the geese
Sound celebration
The storm is gone
Now jubilation
As I crunched
My shoes as I run
I looked up to see
A heart shaped sun

Looking in the Pages
Looking through pages
the freedom of the past.
Before the virus
came so fast.
It will be gone;
just hope and pray.
It won’t be long
we will see a new day.

Crescent Moon
The crescent moon
Shines just outside,
droplets of moon dust
Filters through ice crystals,
Frigid from late autumn.
We rise in hope as heavens
promise what we cannot.

A chilly blustery day as I warm myself
in front of early morning fire.
The dark mornings and quiet house
lends me to reflect.
We are in tumult times of discord,
turmoil and a horrible virus.
My prayer is somehow this changes
and we wake in early morning healed.

Ode to Autumn
I heard an owl outside my window
Breaking dark and morning flight
Then another answers soon after
Together harmony hooting quietA leaf is heard falling softly
Autumn speaks a gentle sound
Lagging song bird breaks the silence
And I am the only one aroundRustic red donned the tree tops
Top to bottom as they fall
Sweet farewell for winters coming
Leaving the trunk standing tallcopyright: CMM 2020
Crescent Moon
Sometimes I feel like Heidi.
The moon and planets meet me,
chilly autumn air, crickets scream,
leaves are browning autumn seen.
Sliding into a Midwest home run
when leaves will fall against the sun .
