Loss Comes Early
Loss comes early to me
My neighbors' leaves
are still green.
Mine have turned and gone.
All my blemishes are exposed.
I wish loss didn't come early to me,
but it is my nature.
This is a persona poem.

No Stopping
No Stopping
This red doesn't stop.
It appears throughout
the tree from
bottom to top.
A signal that
the season of change
is upon us.

Fall Colors
Fall Colors
Fall colors fall as
reflections on the lake.
They appear and disappear
from day-to-day.
Fall colors fall as
the leaves let go.
Blanket the ground
then the wind comes along.
Fall colors fall until
they all are gone.

Dark Days
Dark Days
Dark days display
different depictions.
Details disappear.
Despite dimness,
displays don't disappoint.

Strong Enough
Strong Enough
The branch is thin
and appears to be frail.
But, it is strong enough
to support the bird
that sits upon it.

Celebrate!
Celebrate!
Don't hesitate.
Don't wait
for a certain date
or to create
something great.
Any time, you are who to celebrate.

Safe Travels
Safe Travels
Another year has gone by.
The time has come for me to travel.
Take the same old route.
I give you one more hug
then I start my journey.
Your wish for safe travels
will accompany me all the way.
