sit awhile
and watch spring
wander over
The Chairs’ View
Of Moss And Lichen
of green
foreshadowing spring
The Wondrous Wind
leaves into light
before winter’s good night
Autumn In The Meadow
more precious
as darkness nears
If Summer Could Go On Forever
sunflowers would
shine their cheerful light
through winter’s dark night
Renewal
autumn’s intensity
of color and light
renews my spirit
Frost Dodger
as summer wanes
each flower more precious
for the precariousness
Savoring The Sunshine
summer has not yet
opened the gate
to fall
Now The Light Slants Towards September
the birdhouse stands empty
the quiet of fall approaches
Fall Preparations
room in the stash house
work to be done
Green Centurions
regiment of pines
establishing the frontline
in the waning autumn light
The Colors Whisper Now
and each
falling leaf
opens a new view
Until We Meet Again
grasses weep
a tear or two
bidding summer ado
Eyewitness
taking in the scene
the season’s change
to brown from green
Provisions
as autumn’s color departs
we store its memory
for winter sustenance
Reformation
pinked
from chilly nights
dew and disintegration
Two Chairs On The Path
together we sit
and wait for fall’s
parade of color
Too Soon To Say Goodbye
like summer
we linger
by the fencepost
Fall Approaches
as everything changes
keep flowering
as long as you can
At Summer’s Edge
down by the river
the susans and goldenrod
commune
The Long And Short Of It
the melt has started
but the freeze
hangs on
Until Next Year
grass waves goodbye
to the deep blue
of the cold sky
Repose
the day after
the day lilies
ending
Autumn Revels
a crowd
of colors
celebrate
October Snow
the maple leaf
and snow negotiate
time for everything
Taking Turns
summer lingers
in the field
autumn at the fencepost
In That Space
between the leaves
and their reflection
resides consciousness
Last Dance
the garden offers
one last dance
of color
In The Subtle Shift Of Light
the clouds, the leaves, the grasses
all ride
the wind of season’s change
Morning’s Glory
brilliant blue
heralding
this season’s colors
