Flowers that brighten
Our lives by day and by night,
But all too soon gone.

A dull, dreary day.
But when I rub the dog's ears
Everything is good.

Summer evening.
Clouds in the west are back-lit
By the setting sun

Cold grey skies, harsh winds
And I know autumn is here
And winter's coming.

Surrounded by books.
Hard to decide which to read...
Pick one at random.

The house is silent,
Only I am still awake.
But not much longer.

Leaves turn red and gold,
Then fall, covering the grass...
And slowly fading...

Someone once told me
"We must live in this world...or
Act now to change it."

Hearing the rain
Blowing against the windows
And waiting for dawn.

All day, a cold rain.
Leaves falling from the trees.
Wind chilling my bones.

Since autumn began,
Summer heat continues, and
Leaves still change color.

Waking this morning...
Soft sound of rain on the grass.
Dog sleeps next to me.

Sometimes, words fail us.
Sometimes, even rage and tears
Fail us...As tonight...

Dragonfly resting,
Waiting for a breeze to take
It somewhere better.
