Water wandering wildly. /
Winter almost here.

Fall flowers
Paths of fall color /
Descending from summer /
Color winter’s way.

Old Cowards
Leaves are old cowards, /
falling from the empty love /
of winter’s embrace.

Quixotic
Young sunflower tries — /
facing winter’s stern shadow — /
to grow and thrive.

Mother
Autumn is mother, /
preparing you for winter. /
She rests with the trees.

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

Burnt fingers
Burned by deep cold, leaves /
open to spring’s renewed touch. /
Winter’s fingers crossed.

Sunset
Spring holds hope within, /
waits on the windy sunset /
to sweep out winter.

Ghosts
Lost green ghosts of spring, /
clothed frozen in winter white, /
await haunting warmth.

Outside
Outside the window /
Monsters of winter still cling. /
Dry leaves whispering.
