sublime luminance in late Falllate Fall’s majesty
foggy, cloudy, clear, dawn skies
sublime luminance

“Love Is In The Air”
turn on sound
framed by the golden light
of the Fall day
in the rocking chair by the window
in the sun’s warmth
body still, mind quiet
eyes soft, breath even
soul ascending
on wings of spirit
ageless dreams
of Home

haiku: winds of change
o, leaf spiraling
on the winds of seasons change
from thy golden bough

poem: a caregiver’s satori
with the beauty of
a new autumn day
this tapestry
of colors
blue, pink, white
sky above
orange, red, yellow
leaves below
a caregiver’s day
begins early
it holding
much to do
caring for
my beloved
ordinary chores
and errands
here and now
this satori moment
and then the laundry,
meals, and dishes

suddenly
a gust of Fall breeze
flattens the tall grass
with a swoosh
peacefully
butterflies dart
and flutter
in the frostweed
blissfully
the golden sun rays
play upon our skin
warming our core
gratefully
our breath catches
walking the path
heading home
mindfully
aware winter’s coming
and light’s fading; hope is
a glowing ember in our hearts

haiku: greetings from the autumn equinox
orange flame morning sky
shuffling through wildflower fields
harvest has begun

autumns riot
of color, activity, and light
is a boon for our dulled senses
plants abloom, leaves turn,
bees gather, spiders weave,
golden light and shadows dance
let us find a field
entering as we are able
and marvel its rustic splendor
in awhile
dormancy, darkness, and decay
will send us sheltering inside reflecting
so all hail autumn
in your zenith here and now
harvesting what we may

tanka: autumn mundane and sublime
morning cool and crisp
throw a blanket on the bed
earth’s in its orbit
sun low on the horizon
light and shadow at my door
photo by author
the wind a cool breeze
sun dappled leaves flickering
Spirit carry me

Thanks to Ana Lisa de Jong, dear poet friend,
whose recent poem ‘Topiary’ gave me a
much needed creative spark.
