the waining

The waning   

A summer is over
tired days
dust 
and falling leaves 
in the cafes 
window
I see 
the sad reflection 
of yesterday's
smiles

Eaglet,dolphins and waning light,
Plane,rockets and flowing kite.
Attendant of air all are,
But eaglet boast of her star.

The waning hours

Asleep in time

A dream in rhyme

Desert sublime

So says the moon

So setting soon

Upon the dunes

As Springtime hovers in the wings
in early March, cold north winds rage.
We’ll soon feel winter’s last cold blast;
