Sometimes
only sometimes I
walk outside after dark,
Barefoot on
the cool soft grass
feeling the renewal come
from deep inside the earth
Replenishing tired feet
and calming the spirit,
the energy of nature …

Autumn
A glow of autumn,
a welcomed day.
The spring birds are leaving.
The hummingbirds have lingered ,
but only for a moment
and they will leave.
My one majestic oak tree,
strengthens itself as she knows.
She will soon shed her dress
after the brilliant ball of Fall.
Come gently autumn,
be kind to all who celebrates you.
As winter will take its turn
the world will barely take notice .

Dawn and Night take flight,Memorial Day
Weekend 
Speckled white and ash
Contrast green and soldiers seen
In uniform past.

Autumn Run
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

Autumn Wish
If you follow my blog
And I hope you do
I want to thank you !
Autumn has come
The leaves are turning
Covid 19 is still churning
Politics raging
Nothing to do
But vote, it depends on you
We will still wake
On November the 4th
We will still as people go forth
With a run and a prayer
And awaking to hope
Our people will survive and cope
Green and orange
River still flows
🏃♀️ Runners still forge and know
If we get up
And go on
The road is there
To make it a strong

Autumn Ritual
The fire is lit
The fall has come
The days grow short
At the setting sun
The witches howl
The children play
Sweaters are worn
For the chilly days
Time will rearrange
As seasons show off
The colors change
