Wearing a shawl uncovered 
Her shoulders are bare

Furls spreading white fringes
Waves covering the cold shore

Muscle power raising wall
The oleanders fall

she dons a shawl of crystal rain
dancing upon a rain bowed stage
clouds and sun then clouds again...

Summer
behuddled,
in winter's shawl-
white bell flowers appealed
the dawn

Saturday reflection I enroute to a trip along the Thames....

and sunlight stippled the drive
covering our heads -
our Grandmother's cashmere shawl
wrapped around all three of us...

a shawl of crimson and gold
lady of the dusk

buries her flushed face
in the bosom of the sea
and sets it aflame...

Pure white shawl
In the ravine steeps
Shining snow
Red rose peeps
Crystalline sky greets warmly
Nature of winter

	Nosh a little fly
Gobble down a bumble bee
	In a humble pie.

Wrap it up in christmas paper
	Purchased at the mall....

Autumn leaves,
Yellow rain,
Winter's blossom, 
Once again.

Fall is falling,
Twilight reigns,
Earth's shawl,
In beauty gains.

Cool breeze,
Drifting mist,
Fresh freeze,
Autumn kissed....

I love the colors seen in fall
Ground's wrapped up in a leafy shawl
Drat! I must rake those fallen leaves
Wild winds are whistling in the eaves
My preferred season of them all...

My adoring eyes worked alongside my nimble fingers
To gently swaddle your tiny frame in a
Soft White shawl


Now
The same two eyes and hands check you wear you're seat belt
Before you drive off

And wave...

Fluttering golden 
brown leaves dancing on air falls 
undressing nature

The wild geese flying 
overhead a sign of peace
winter closes in

Throwing the old peat
keeping a fire burning 
as cold approaches...

The midnight masquerade ball.
Seemingly slight brocade shawl.
Beseechingly glance, decayed hall.
Haunted trance, unafraid fall.
Vaunted skies evade all.
She tries dissuade call.
Decree daylight, unmade, befall....

antidepressant

black death
heart rattle
against bone cage
trapped in a chemical labyrinth
smothered in a shawl mind haze
living tears dried, lost
not cried
spark fried
brain wires uncrossed.
but life
lost....
