color that pulses
my heart beats
in sync
Concentration Of Red Maple
In Departure Arrival
from the branch
to the ground
and back to the source
Chiaroscuro
the landscape exhales
as color and light
crack open the darkness
Autumn Light Elucidated
red maple
leaves blazing
lightening in their veins
Evergreens
as colors wane
the pines step forward
offering their constant camaraderie
Color Hunting
leaf peepers
big buck
the red, red maple
Brass Echo
early turning
some azalea leaves browning
the watering can echos below
Splendor
the saintly birch
in her golden halo
luminous in blue
Watercolored Woods
thinned by the rain
what remains
intensified by space
Autumn Palette
weather spins
the color wheel
to unending appeal
Watercolored World
the edges
between everything
dissolving
Rain In The River
rain
hurries the river
ever increasing her curves
In That Space
between the leaves
and their reflection
resides consciousness
At Beauty’s Behest
from the edge
of the pink woods
step into wonderland
Harmony
November’s
sky and light
when opposites agree
Sweetness
maple lace
almost sweeter
than syrup
The Expansion of Color
white birch
reflecting
fall’s gloriousness
Road Signs
full stop
traffic jam
of autumn’s color
Rooted in Rock
hair of gold
atop the granite face
smiling palisade
Tall Teachers
lessons take time
learning has no end
our subject is everything
The Taste Of Color
plum purple
maple leaf
autumn’s fruit
Spirit Guide
always nearby
awaiting notice
guiding the way
Autumn’s Paint
colors run
in the wild
wet woods
Glory
each moment
an exaltation
saturated in joy
Pray
for the peace
in the pasture
to cradle the world
Glow
leaves capture
the power of the sun
becoming embers of autumn
Tableau Vivant
forest tableau
a soft rendering
of November
Color is the Light
orange and purple dawn
honored by the morning moon
color is the light of autumn’s days
Willow Chairs
beneath the changing colors
with feet in a rainbow of leaves
these are the seats to spend time with time
Fortification
the landscape floods with color
and soaks into our every cell
fortifying us for winter’s long monochrome
