Autumn Scenes
Monday, September 24th, 2007
orange to gold
in varied hues
dress the trees
leaves turning
red on maple
green no more
wild dahlias
and purple velvet
swaths of heaven
under walnut
and maple trees
fallen leaves

In my porch of dreams
Friday, September 21st, 2007

I sit in comfort on a cloud
of soft pillows, a glass in hand
as butterflies, hover and crowd
over some flowers on a stand:
daffodils and yellow roses -
just above where my pup dozes.
They flutter and dance in the breeze
with such a show of playful glee
along with busy, buzzing bees:
to me, a jolly company;
flitting in and out while I sit
musing, dreaming, as I see fit.
Lost in a thought, never alone,
locked in the moment’s warm embrace,
caressed by the wind’s gentle moan -
contentment written on my face.
I bask in such joy as it streams
in me, here in my porch of dreams

Sweet Innocence
Monday, September 17th, 2007
Wild torrents tried to rush
into my solemn little world
Storms in their intense fury
threatened to engulf my soul
Sad fate kept me on guard
as I moved to tread on life
Passion gripped my shoulders
but I managed to be free
Quietly I struggled onward
fighting back wild emotions
Until they all lay panting
at the foot of my innocence

There is Hope
Friday, September 14th, 2007
Pain. Sadness. Anger. Madness.
Pure emotions that cannot be masked.
Who? What? When? Why? How?
Mere questions that need to be asked.
Yesterday, brought forth confusion,
leaving behind a trail of emptiness;
Turning your world upside down,
just void of all hope and happiness.
But, today is another day,
and here is a good place to start
When nothing makes any sense,
pray and put a smile in your heart.
For tomorrow brings good cheer,
and a brand new hope of joy to you;
That, there’ll be no more pain,
as you find love: real and true.

Freedom talking
Tuesday, September 11th, 2007
Touch me not in fear
I am not bought with gold
Hold me gently, dearly
make me stay on and bloom
Weaken not to my foes
They cannot win this fight
Grant me faith, trust
and I will live on forever

Wisdom of a child
Thursday, September 6th, 2007
Sometimes, a child’s wisdom,
can just stop us in our tracks.
It can make us truly realize,
what is inside our hearts.
A silly thought of question,
is now a food for thought.
When one, in quiet reflection,
finds out its simple truth.
We see the love of God,
in the eyes of every child.
In heaven, we can believe,
if a child’s faith, we have.

September Beauty
Monday, September 3rd, 2007
Sweet voiced lass of beauty fair
claim your due on this your day;
away be yourself from trouble’s lair
to greet the morning with joy today.

Be still not, in your merry quest
proclaim more praise of God, untold;
embrace love, in His peace take rest
and so sing from your heart of gold.
