Beyond this fascination of distinguished coats Shed about the wind such fine decorum notes Still sweet the scent of melon rinds Deposed of drink the earth declines November to remember as the day unwinds My heart hears melody beneath the surfaces Where nature has resolved to be twin likeness I find my place upon my knees Eye to eye with the smallest of clemencies Among the earthy woods, and cedar trails tall Shedding clothes and shedding me a moment to befall To nougat pinkened bisque, buffed smooth like cream More November ember than far before has seen Held still the expectation, indexed of winters whispered chill More than touch anticipates its magic charms at will Along the curve of graceful spine, a long and tender stroke Turning face to ecstasy in pulsing moments soak Made prone upon this season’s bliss, my heart enthralled as this And waiting to be found the purpose here upon the ground My eyes will feast upon the snow, so soft beneath the winds that blow As one in soul and solitary, claimed and ardent dignitary The Sentinels embrace, enchanted passages enlace Their silent wisdom given tongue, consoling strolling As this, a brief encounter given in the autumn’s kiss And I, the fall to take as prize, we meet again ‘neath arbor eyes Copyright Kkh 11/7/04 |

Kathleen, I do not believe even the masters found within their pens a finer tribute to Autumn ... You should be quite proud of this, and I hope, someday, to see it in print... You have a talent, my friend, that should be showcased. |

There is a certain sensuality about this time of the year that just spills over into the soul. I admire your talent very much in all of your writes but this one is probably my favorite by far. It holds a beauty within it's lines that showcase some excellent metaphors and the personifications are without measure. This I think will go into my library. |
