Pie
Apples peeled and cored, /
gathered and ready to turn /
fall into taste.

Dreams
Fall light and shadow, /
dreams shine with distorted time, /
waiting on their prey.

Ghosts
Fall daylight declines. /
Flaring houselights arise: ghosts /
of incomplete time.

Leaf
The green drains away. /
The leaf dons its brittle coat, /
and waits for fall’s touch.

Latte-dah
Summer is over, so Starbucks declares, /
bringing forth their fall pumpkin wares. /
Temperatures still roiling across the US. /
When they will break is anybody’s guess. /
Hurricanes hit California and other coasts, /
but Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai Latte Starbucks boasts. /
It may be 69 days until Halloween /
but this declaration seems self-serving and a bit obscene.

Hints
Fall is dropping hints. /
Yellow, brown, red, orange notes. /
Winter whispers: “Yes.”

Bee
Bee darts among blooms, /
gathering summer’s pollen, /
whispering of fall.

Sun—
Sun— fading light and /
flower too soon meet their fall. /
Seeds of night and death.

Acknowledge
Acknowledge the heart /
in the fall sun’s passing. Clouds /
reflect and move on.

Shadow Song
Breeze and leaves chorale /
Through sun-silhouetted limbs. /
Shadow song of fall.
