Indian Summer

Summer’s gone…
The earth has shifted.
The sun slants
Anew each day.

The chill in the air
In the cool, cool, dawn,
Brings a change
Most welcome, some say.

Cooling temperatures cause the leaves to turn colors,
But the temperatures climb again during Indian Summer.
Multi-colored leaves are the last fanfare before winter.

Saturday In the Schoolyard

Lined up like third-graders 
on the fence of a deserted ballfield
after a week of Indian summer – 
cast-off sweaters, mittens, coats.
From a treetop, birds recite
the morning lesson.

Afreckle of Stars

Indian summer
  hazy eyes
irridescent,laughing
parrots flying 
thru your palms
waterfalls
on magic lanterns
swinging
between us
lighting the primeval shore
where we tread
beyond the rush of time.

Premium Member In A Smile


in a smile, a supernova explodes
   sadness is wiped off the face 
     lights penetrates darkness 

notwithstanding searing intensity
       a winter among winters
           is indian summer

Indian Summer In the Desert

Summer Sun's heat waves good bye, cool breeze sweeps the desert floor
                                      Geronimo's spirit sits by the autumn campfire
                          A lone coyote howls at the desert's Indian Summer Moon

winter time it is
feels like Indian-summer
54 degrees

cool crisp breeze sunny
warmth from God breathe luminates
January now

It’s the seventh day
Almost close to mid winter
Still January

Premium Member AUTUMN LEAVES

Fall 
    leaves 
foliage  
on the lawn 

the days shorten
                   
out of depression's
   shadow

an Indian Summer          
arrives               
&calls

my heart
    revives

to survive

& face
      Winter's 
long haul

Premium Member Indian Summer

Indian summer
the nuzzle of a fawn
as I doze

She stands, not defiantly
not with threats of maim.
She has trust and curiosity
as any babe would have.
She captured my heart
for one split second in time. 
Then she was gone.
