Post Last October’s Sunday the dawning starts earlier, just as the waiting sun; we turn to face its glimmer because the night is done a solitary glow spreads the firmament the silhouettes at hand sweeten up like condiment the fern, an orangy tan sprawls as orangutan against the green and gold of grasses neath caterpillars hang and scattered about lanai in piles and single file are autumn’s dusted leaves arranged as random tile lives lived and spent, at rest, await the crumbling of time October’s nearly o’er with its topsy-turvy clime cold snap, one day, frost’s kiss warm air sweet textures next and I await the mist that compliments fall’s text ©October 28, 2002 I'm sure there's a better title, but that's all I have for now. Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

(smiles) No matter what the title is, this is a gorgeous seasonal gem and a keeper! (kiss on cheek) Such imagery is vivid here, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Virginia, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
