Autumn's Reverie of Beauty and DecayIn autumn's graceful waltz of time,
Beauty and decay intertwine.
Where joy and sorrow blissfully dance
In grace, they move, a mesmerizing rhyme.
Leaves unfurl like a painter's dream,
A masterpiece woven in color and light.
Twirling and a pirouette, wind's...

For October
Echoes
off tenement windows,
sound mixed
with fluttering glimpses
of fake hanging ghosts.
Air smells of October.
Perhaps
we’re only just
remembering, or
noticing how much
we usually forget.
Soon it’ll get colder.
For a fiver I...

Fallin'rustlin' sounds abound
children hidin' but soon are found
laughter and cheer in the air
beautiful yellows, reds, and browns everywhere
cool breeze a-blowin'
soon 'Ole Man Jack' will be showin'
sparrows, warblers, and wrens singin' less
dog days' zeal...

Autumn's Tones
Just before the touch of winter’s caress
Comes a moment when my heart must confess
Peace sways eagerly in the zephyr spice
Tempting autumn brings wonders so precise
Just beyond songs of summer’s gentling kiss
Comes a season when hearts...

Fall BouquetsWhen Autumn marks its equinox
And Fall steps in to take its spot
With harvest hues in rich arrays
Bursting out in bold displays
Of red and yellow, gold bouquets
And tawny fields of amber waves
To warm the hill, the...

Oktoberfest in WisconsinOktoberfest
Pretzel and beer
Wisconsin’s finest celebration
Bringing all Germans into town
To raise their frothy glasses to each other
The prettiest girls wear the sweet dresses
With suspenders and colors of their ancestors
Salt on the pretzels as large as dinner...

The Texas heat still lingers, but there is a sense of hope creeping in.

Harvest Time
October is the time
to harvest that which
summer days did
sow.
Enjoy one last flash of
brilliance before we
succumb to winter’s
snow…

AugtoberPumpkin spice wafts through the air
To spite the summer heat
I'm already planning what to wear
When I trick-or-treat
Buying back-to-school supplies
Or buying bags of candy
It's important to prioritize
What most will come in handy
Sugar skulls and jack-o'-lanterns
Are grinning...

AS THE MISTY MOON RIDES HIGHThe corn maze full in October,
“As the misty moon rides high.”
Nighttime makes occasion sober,
Still laughter lingers, is not shy.
Headless, the hopeful, scans the crowd.
The high and mighty on his list.
With black stallion, his shrieking loud.
Like...

October scarlet and gold stillness drawn
kindle in treetops and lace on the lawn.
Butterflies flutter amid garden's plants
and fruit grown fall, flowing foraging ants.

Seasonal"beyond the silence of summer's end"
what hangs in the air?
autumn's momentum
color of unabashed vigor
clouds lowering, unadorned
days snapped off by change
till cold stalks
our arms hugging inside woolen sweaters
children in chilly clumps of costume marching
flames licking logs,...

21 OCT 2022 IT ISThey saw each other,
For the first time.
She saw an angel,
For the first time.
Locked eyes and they smiled,
That few second of stare,
Was a life.
The day when she met him,
Was the day when she,
Went on heaven to...

Poet's MoonStanding here
Miles from home
Where moonlit wheatfields
Inspire me to write
October’s whisper
Causes their stir
And I watch as they
Undulate like ocean
Or satin sheets
Billowing over a bed
And I know there is
A language to this
One that transcends
The spoken
For poetry
In...
