This is a view from my North York balcony.

Fire In The Breeze

I have not dined today,
Except for the view of these
Taken in like sweet dessert,
Waves each so slightly,
Telling of the breeze.

They tell the Don to run away.
To lake and sea and finally play
Amidst the warmer climates far away
And tell the sky to bring him back this way.


So once again, we can smell the rain,
As it falls on failing green,
The chlorophyl now removed, unmasked,
Each one reflects true colours seen.


From far off, I see them burst
The fireworks the greenery brings,
A canopy of pyrotechnics,
Predicting colder things.


And while the summer lasts, mid fall,
I will savour this short show,
And hold it dear inside memory,
To warm me when the north winds blow.

Sherry Gardner

Breathtakingly beautiful Sherry!
So pleased to see you posting here!
You have been missed my friend.
I'll have to show this to the 'one in the dungeon'
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
~Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~

Thank you both for such kind words. Noah, you're such a charmer!!! and Nancy, I seldom have the time to write anymore... but it was such a gorgeous day, I had to take a picture and pen a poem to it's glory.  Tell the resident wizard I said "HI".
(you say you keep him in the dungeon now?!?)
LOL

Love and Hugs,

Sherry ~

The photo, the poetry, and the music all blend together to make an absolutely  delightful post!

I was especially impressed with the uniqueness of your descriptive images and use of words. To think I almost missed this beauty--now that would truly have been a pity!

Happy halloween hugs,
Linda

What happenned to the Blue Pages!!?!!?  I am assuming that this little colour swing is for HOllowe'en.... I really wreaks havoc with some of my font colours but... it goes great with the theme of the poem.... COOL!!!

Linda, Thank you for finding this one and bringing it back for another looksee...

Donna, Martie and Dixie, Thanks for reading.  If you want to see what I did to it on my site, click here.

Love, Light and Peace,
