"AUTUMN SPLENDOR"
Autumn splendor lingers
reluctant to retreat
without a final flourish.
The lash of latter rains
conspire with whipping winds
to chase her off stage
but autumn stands staunchly
on mountain and meadow
waving her scarlet scarves
defying frost and fading foliage
laughing with careless abandon
stunning my summer senses
with her breathtaking beauty.
Stay, autumn--just one more day
before winter disrobes you
to naked, shivering branches
reaching for mercy to the gray sky
and chilly gusts sting
your flushed face.
Please stay--just one more day--
it's a long time 'till spring!
LATE OCTOBER
Late October:
temperamental days
bluffing me, mocking me
with teasing, wistful
coquettish ways.
Lingering memories
of jovial July
blazing sun
and summer fun
are tossed on the run
but mixed with
frosty ecstasies.
Reminiscing time
that casts a chill
as winter steals
with cold appeals
slipping finally
into November's prime
