the light
now gilds
most everything
Autumn’s Wealth
Moving On
as the wind whisks away
leaves and clouds
new intimacies of the landscape divulged
The Hurried Hush
autumn days quicken
keeping pace with the meadow’s
movements of light and color
Clarity
everything intensified
as edges and differences
make themselves known
Renewal
autumn’s intensity
of color and light
renews my spirit
Halloween Bunting
banners wave
the hunting party gathers
to stalk their candy prey
The Princess Tree
voluminous pink
in every shade and hue
adorned her
Afternoon With Cows
we bask
in autumn light
as time floats by
Highest, Bluest, Widest
divine sky
heaven visits
for the afternoon
Dew On Dahlia
in autumn light
the finest finery
dew bedazzles
In The Subtle Shift Of Light
the clouds, the leaves, the grasses
all ride
the wind of season’s change
Where The Colors Lead
rainbow’s end
gold adorned
the leaves
At Beauty’s Behest
from the edge
of the pink woods
step into wonderland
Harmony
November’s
sky and light
when opposites agree
Time’s Thread
shadow’s long reach
knits together
shorter days
Four Fields
the spirit farmer’s
ephemeral harvest
is autumn light
Interlude
time stopped
eternity unraveled
in a visit to a petal
Readying
grasses softly sing
slumber’s sweet lullaby
of approaching dormant days
Inscription
autumn light
etches the edges
of everything into memory
Stored Magic
spectacularly
stored magic
in leaves and bark
Crisp
autumn light
chisels colors
out of the blue
Tall Teachers
lessons take time
learning has no end
our subject is everything
Glow
leaves capture
the power of the sun
becoming embers of autumn
Sunlit
a grace note
of autumn light
plays upon the lily pond
