Dead heat
The warmth of summer /
Has died into cool autumn. /
Winter holds cold seeds.

Loaves
Six loaves a leaping /
Cranberries and pecans /
Taste the holidays.

Lonely
Lonely silhouette /
Life bare: fall tree, fallen leaves. /
Setting sun holds you.

Regrets
Among fallen leaves /
Holiday corn muffin mix. /
Unopened regrets.

Fall beach
A beach of asphalt. /
Waves of fallen autumn leaves. /
Lingering shadows.

Oaks
Oaks are shy fall trees: /
leaves growing brown, slowly down. /
Worn veils whispering.

Withered bouquet
Withered, the hang. Brown /
cenotaphs of somewhere. Death’s /
sunflower bouquet.

Frost
Frost coats the ground, grass, /
and leaves, shimmers with autumn, /
bundles morning’s light.

Wind
Like birds on a wire, /
Waiting for inspiration, /
My thoughts ache for wind.

In a moment
Dying autumn leaf, /
Whisper now how winter comes: /
With or without love?
