Autumn Descends Autumn descends with clouds and rain,with harvest crops long gone to grain.Promise of cool days round the bend…but summer doesn’t want to end. Missing the catbird’s plaintive callas crimson leaves begin to fall.Sights and sounds of autumn transcend…but summer doesn’t want to end. Out of the dark, into the dampdubious sun shines likeContinue reading “Autumn Descends”

Oblivious
The poem “Oblivious” by Colleen Keller Breuning captures a serene evening by a firepit, watching the sunset and stars with loved ones. Inspired by the Outlander series, the author recounts the beauty of nature, the music of the night, and the feeling of being disconnected from the demands of the outside world.

Grace of the Daffodil
Grace of the Daffodil She rose and turned to the sunlight,The orange rays warmed her up inside.She shook her yellow head, contrite,And set aside her steely pride.

Felinity
Felinity I believe in love at first sight,My furry little feline sprite.In your shelter cage, full of glee…My heart you stole eternally. Mood swings from funny to fickle:Playful, puckish, in a pickle.Blind luck? I call it destiny…My heart you stole eternally. I held you close that fateful dayAnd helped your spirit sail away.Chase that rainbow,Continue reading “Felinity”
Christmas Spirit
Christmas Spirit The crimson sun comes crashing downBlood red rays tumble to the ground.I see it through the scarlet glare,Christmas spirit is everywhere.

Oh silent night, most holy night,I’m drawn towards the eastern light.I bowContinue reading “Christmas Spirit”
Beneath the Harvest Moon
Beneath the Harvest Moon Autumn fires burn in golden sunOctober hues have come undone.As catbird sings his mournful tune,I wait beneath the harvest moon. Whisked on the wind, leaves are falling.Feel the chill of winter calling.Love comes not a moment too soon,I wait beneath the harvest moon. Your lips taste of cabernet wine,Sending chills runningContinue reading “Beneath the Harvest Moon”
