I hope everyone in the US had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. I’m going to be taking some time off in the month of December, so I’ll be popping in here and there and hopefully be back to a full time schedule in January.
Be safe and warm and I’ll see you soon.
falling rain on mushrooms
black tea in the afternoon
tiny deer on tiny plates
yellow and red leaves on grass
cornbread in the oven
frost on the roof
seeing everything traced in frost, gives one the courage to welcome the changing seasons
her eyes seemed heavy as they fell to the quiet and the warmth and the promise of delicious dreams
if autumn were a woman,
she’d wear long flowing coats
and have greying amber hair
that would billow loosly out of a worn felt hat
riding bikes with banana seats covered in cereal box stickers
dolls with growing hair
riding in the back of truck beds
barking dogs chasing cars
clove cigarettes
pool tables and pin ball games in basements
1970 Ford Torino
fireworks in fields
bus rides to town and hot dogs for lunch
I will be taking a blog break for a week or so.
Be well, and I’ll see you again soon.
you fell into my path
and I carried you to safety
there you were, in my dream last night,
and i recognized you,
and you recognized me–
when the night faded into day
and the light lifted us into consciousness–
I was still there,
but you were not
there are times when she’d like to close her eyes,
lay her head into folded arms,
and sleep for years and years and years
