Transition

It was almost like twilight this morning
Grey clouds so low on the hills
Not far for rain to fall                                              Double Kimo

Gutters rushed their burdens toward the sea
The shards of summer swirling
Winter’s finger beckons

Wow! Good use of imagery and personification for a artistic view. There is so much depth in just six lines. Well done! Karen

Magnificent imagery and a sense of serenity, even as "Winter's finger beckons." There are mornings like this here as well, fellow LNC. Today the fog was so think it seemed like gray clouds were everywhere. I'll bet the Pie Lady has her apron on again real soon. Take it easy at work and enjoy the holidays with your family. Much love and gratitude for your friendship this year as 2010 approaches, Carolyn
