Drowsing on sunlight
An invitation to rest
A warm day in fall
Midlife
Days fly by quicker
Seasons unfurl, a carpet
Scents come and drift away
Acorn Treasure
The rush of autumn
Squirrels adding to their cache
Winter not far away
Favored Tune
Gentle confessions
A love song’s sweet entreaty
Replayed on repeat
Perspectives
The silver medalist is more bitter than the bronze;
One could have had gold
The other, happy to have placed on the podium.
Playboy, Playgirl
The slow fever that builds
when I look into your eyes.
And the coy smile that deflects
with such cruelty.
Hearts but a collection.
Morning Pep
A brighter morning
After a late night downpour
Embers reignite
Renewal
Children’s bright smiles
Furtive young lovers
Snowdrops in winter
Rain’s Aftermath
A rainy morning
Leaves the streets slick with coolness
Late strollers saunter
Plan B
A small victory
Standing firm to bullying
Exit plans thought of
