Gusty winds scatter
colorful leaves, creating
a moving picture.

Falling For Autumn
Branches toss,
fallen leaves skitter,
nuts descend,
pumpkins ripen,
mums shine,
folks don sweaters,
geese fly south,
cardinals stay
as Autumn struts its stuff.

Flowing Caveat
Going with the flow
is fine unless you’re headed
for a waterfall.
JDG
Matchless
Slowly the trees burst
into fireless flames and
set the land aglow.

Bugged
Knox saw a spider
and invited it to play,
but the spider showed
no interest much to Knox’s
dismay. It just crawled away.

Enticing The Seasons
Hoping to invite fall,
I wore a light sweater
and watched as the leaves
began to fall. Who knows?
If this works, I might try
wearing a bathing suit in late December
JDG
You Never Know
Thought she was a goner,
but Summer came back,
causing Fall to flee.
The next thing you know,
fallen leaves might decide
to reattach to trees.
JDG
To Each Their Own
On this, our last walk of the day,
I greet the slowly rising moon
and welcome each star
as Knox enthusiastically
sniffs everything along the way.
JDG
At Day’s Close
The sun sings bright notes
and is joined by the moon in
a duet of opposites.

Fall Comes To Virginia
Today there was a bite in the air,
well, more like a nibble,
but I am so grateful
I won’t quibble.
