The sun is rising as I walk the wooded path. The air is brisk; twigs snap under my feet. Nature's palette of colors in all its glory. Brown, yellow, and orange leaves fall, like my clothes in the light breeze. I see the boat dock around the bend as I'm now naked, swelling in anticipation. The sun reflects on the surface of the lake in a fiery orange as I round the last bend. I love this time of year. She reveals herself f...
This brings me back,takes me on a journey in the deep recesses of my mindto a time I remember well.And although it tastes the same(like winter)like hot chocolate on a crisp, dark night,feels like the sharp wind whipping at my skin,I wear the scars it leaves differently now.Cold bitter frost gathers on my tonguebut I'm quick to melt them in my pyre.I had almost forgotten how you felt like ice to me(and yet somehow you alwa...

Dreams of Aspen and fresh falling powdercuddling by the fire all melt like so much errant snowYou know the seasons will changeyet you're always surprised when hearts doBetter not to rely on the weatherbecause Mother Nature can be unforgivingDress in layers against the elementsand protect against the chillBecause it's hard to recover from frostbiteand Summer is too far away
You should be able to seeWhen I am struggling to beCold winds howl and shakeIt's harder now for me to wakeThis year you've turned blindLeaving me to flounder in my mindYears past you've held my handDon't leave me alone in this wastelandBack and forth, up an down, good and badI can't have taken all that you hadReach for me before I fall into the abyssI'll try to catch your hand, pray I don't missJust another winter, for us...

By the moon I sit to seek your glory,The white rose I see creates a new story.Seasons are many,Their reasons few in between.What remains is that I alwaysLove you!For all to see,No matter where we're at,No matter the timeBut this momentThat we seek. For this momentIn the moonlight,I'm loving you,No matter what they sayNo matter what they do.Your the one whomI love,My sweet friend. So many momentsSo many timesThat we stealA...
Spring giggles at my pane Fickle as she frolics Warming rays by day Cool breath by night Teasing whispers she calls Please, peek out, come see Summer seduces my entrance She kisses and caresses Like a flower unfolds Her passion to be known Hearts to be captured Let go, love, be free Autumn knocks at my door Her urging of summer off A harvest of hooray An ease of silver shine Comfort so says the sage Sit down, relax, be st...
She was leaving him. Again. And there was nothing he could do about it. They were caught in this endless cycle of renewal to slow decay. He hated it - and still he yearned for her. Every time. He smoothed a hand over the soft length of her back, as she lay besides him, hovering in that insouciant peace between waking and sleep. It made him smile. She had not been this relaxed, this calm in a long time, the last few weeks...
Autumn is a scent that tickles my nose The crisp breeze in the trees Reminders of the coming frost Promising the happy renewal of life Spring-time is lovely Light flowers bloom bright Life returns in vibrant colors Songs float on the breeze Summer is sultry Heavy scents of earth and life Pealing laughter abounds Playful times and memories made Winter is chill comfort Icy fingers trailing along the breeze Fires crackling i...
Ride my ecstasee-saw Cutting teeth on ripping Tips and dipping valleys See so many seasons Rise and fall and winter Springs to summer's sailing Sunny climes sublimely Climbing falling swirling Down through seven circles To the darkest depths An apocheir with no one No one there but you and Bubbles bursting upwards Cork released a feast Awaits yet at the summit Plummet sliding slopes of Greasy groping fingers Clawing gro...
The winter of your absence I hide and freeze Entombed beneath the sheets of ice And sleep a thousand deaths * The springtime of your nascence I wake and thaw Swell and split with roots of white Shoots of the brightest sheen * The summer of your presence I thrive and bloom Bedecked is wondrous petalled shades I burst and bear my fruit * The autumn of your distance I shrink and curl Corrupted back into the earth Embrace...
One typical chilly fall Saturday, I was rather bored. Sitting inside in my living room watching daytime television, same problem for everyone, just a bunch of re-runs. Anyway, I finally snap and head upstairs to my room take a look out of my window and I see the brilliant fall colored orange and yellow leaves on the trees at the park near by my house. I live in a town right next to a college town and being in high school,...
Although my thinning hair is slowly falling and I am in the autumn of my life and know that winter days will soon be calling, a thought that sometimes stabs me like a knife. And when I see my skin no longer smooth, the wrinkles on my brow, the lines around my eyes, remembering the green spring days of my youth, I chuckle as I listen to my sighs, but then I think of you my lovely friend, my lover, who, like me is getting o...
Leaves are falling,Changing in colorWinds change direction,Birds flying southYou hold my hand, We go out again Everything is changing.
