Memories

I looked at the trees,

watched the leaves fall

How lovely it is

In spite of it all.

The tensions are high

about wrong or right.

The people have voted

and we grumble in spite

However the trees’ colors

of burnt orange and gold

the breeze helps them fall

and the trees just get old

A full blue moon

Hangs just outside

The stars near by

All will hide

Behind the blue moon…

The sacred moments

A time of you

A cup of cider

A thought renewed

displayed are venders best

My run was a different quest

I managed to improve my race

shaved 2 min per mile pace

The old red barn

Has lost some charm

The bare cupboards

sound alarm .

As the day of plenty

Is now in the past

The smell of yesterday

Somehow still last

Handkerchiefs are gone

Crochet by hand

The tiny baskets

No longer stand

The apples still ripen

And the pears still fall

Mask are all worn

But not by all

Poets and artist

Will record this time

When people passed

And the need to be kind.

Rest In Peace

And thank you

For all the years

You fought tirelessly

For equal rights

Under the law.

With integrity

And class,

Reservation

And fierceness

Of a warming fire

That would burn through time

Before and now and forever .

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg

My daughter and my 3 grandchildren and me at a local farm.

I thought of all the places

I thought of many paces

over the years I ran

In hopes i always can

It has been me

My constant …
