“Embrace”

Embrace

Branches bare, sunlight crisp,

clouds with highlighted edges.

Fall’s naked embrace.

“Rhythms”

Rhythms

Steady, deep rhythms /

calm the mind, quiet the heart,

breathe to right the leaf.

Fall leaves

Fall leaves

Blueberry’s fall leaves /

reflect red with the season, /

soon brown with winter.

Frost

Frost coats the ground, grass, /

and leaves, shimmers with autumn, /

bundles morning’s light.

Wrinkled paper

Opening again, /

wrinkled wrapping paper. /

I hear it, too — rain.

“Down and up”

Down and up

Dead leaves drift down. /

Young cat scrambles up the tree. /

Rain and clouds depart.
