Web of Seasons
Leaves have left the trees
and wild turkeys trot
along the edge of fallow fields.
Caught in the web of seasons,
one wishes for a smooth road.
However, the weather brings
a variety of conditions –
sometimes a run of warm days
followed by a blast that
touches to the bone.
One wonders, will the eye
of winter steady this situation?

Spot of Beauty
Spot of Beauty
Breath of a breeze
blows a rush of leaves –
they rustle in hues
of red, yellow and gold,
sparkling in the autumn sun
like some precious jewels.
Squirrels take no notice
while digging holes for
next season’s stores.
One needs to embrace
this spot of beauty,
soon only the bare branches
of winter’s cold landscape
will remain.
