Woolgathering In Autumn
Leaves chant in brown, "Thirty days hath November, too." What is that I hear? I draw a lingering breath, as I contemplate this year, the outwash of death. Autumn has arrived. And I remember anew... We grasshoppers rest, unlike the diligent ant; chills we don't address and our breakdowns break again. Short of sevenfold success, winter will bring pain. My hope:...

A silver moon arrives to bathe me with her moonlight sending me into a dream state of beauty and respire With feet of feather weight I never touch the ground as I gaze at the beauty that surrounds this gauzy lake Accustomed to the shadows of the night I gather long around the...

Autumn Woolgathering
i draw a lingering breath, what is that I hear? as I contemplate this year, the coming of death. “Thirty days hath September” the leaves chant in brown autumn arrives, falling down. And we remember… our own breakdowns once again - chills we don't address. Short of sevenfold success - winter will bring pain.

An Autumn Woolgathering
As the time of long light gathers dark and draws near Frosty days appear to host falling leaves and rainbow showers I sit adrift dreaming while I wile away the grey hours Or reading a book left behind in summers overdrive gear It’s time to change my August dress for sleeves of Autumn wool I spend blustery ripe afternoons adorning...

An Autumn Woolgathering
Autumns bring thoughts of the end of things Rambling musings to be sure, of course But thoughts nonetheless with their own force As nature erases the gain of Springs I seem to be reminded each Fall That all things that live must meet an end The truth of life is no one knows when The end will arrive and stop it all Such...

Sitting now in shawl and flannel drape huddled ‘gainst cold truth of wafting breeze soft touch of sun, through clouds, a welcome tease rekindling old dreams as they re-cape those heroes and heroines of yore who bled the tartan plaid of battle’s field though in defeat would never learn to yield who held to freedom’s never ending chore biding time, old memories to...
