Changing Tomorrow’s Perspective I donned gray slacks and a black top today, with black shoes, and looked simple in the sunlight, which was promised; a pleasant character, I had hoped, as the trees fluttered with winds from the south and then headed with expectancy into my day. I am always expectant, I never know what might be around that corner, so I have a smile in the ready and a wariness that most don’t see behind my eye just in case. But the day one-eighty’ed me, cool temps got cooler, and gray ripples fish-boned across the skies by noon, those south winds were pushing in moisture, even though radar showed clear skies… sometimes we have to rely on what we see. I could feel the tense of knowing fall will be short just as summer was overly hot and winter, perhaps, may almost become unbearably long; my day became gray, like my clothes, and night began to edge the black in early. Tomorrow’s forecast? More of tonight. Tomorrow’s perspective? I’ll wear red. |

Now Sunshine....I have the feeling you could NEVER be simple in the sunlight.. You sparkle wherever you go! This poem sparkles too... one of the best I have seen from you. Congrats! Larry |

This is lovely, you blend greys and blacks and reds all together and get somethings else. in other words- ahhh...can't think of them And the angel said unto me, "These are the cries of the carrots, the cries of the carrots!" |

today was kissed by cooling mist as old man sun was on the run left behind for all to find, an autumn day, while somewhat grey, it could be worse, as is this verse, just remember come late December, when ice and snow and north wind's blow, descend on Salina you'll want to whine a bit and wish the fall, returned for all. sorry, just had to see if I could get a rhyme for Salina other than myna or one other one that because I am a Kansas farmboy I cannot say in mixed company... P.S. enjoyed the poem [This message has been edited by Tim (09-29-2003 11:26 PM).] |

Tomorrow’s forecast? More of tonight. Tomorrow’s perspective? I’ll wear red. and did your wardrobe facilitate the change in colors?  |

the seasons keep changing like our wardrobes, but even in that, life is not so predictable |
