With my inner spirit I can converse
With the trees and stars of the universe
The conversation draws us very close
In a message of our unity
All of us are children of the same source
That's the ultimate universal force
And we all follow a similar course
In fulfilment of our destiny

A single snowflake drifts to the ground
As a Robin sings her melody
She wraps her feathered arms around
Her fledglings nesting in a tree
A rabbit sees the tiny flake
As she forages with her brood
Soon it will be time to hibernate
And no time to search for food
The geese prepare their goslings
For the long flight heading south
A mama gander counts her chicks
With grass hanging from her mouth
The bears play with their cubs
On their last day outside
With bellies filled and fur well thickened
Into their cave they stride
Yes winter is surely almost here
The cold wind has started blowing
Make sure you prepare as animals do
For soon it will be snowing.

a buzzing bee
the sleeping dog awakens
then bolts from the room
dancing in the dark
fireflies paint lines of light
in exquisite designs
multi-coloured lights
searching the northern sky
aurora borealis

The tunnel i walked
was dark with darting
sun light touching spots with
tender caresses from leaf to leaf.
Touching me too
I smiled with glee.
Looking up above to the cannopy
of trees interlocked, swaying
seemingly in a loving embrace.
Life could not be better.
Crinckling leaves underfoot,
birds hopping, singing, scatching
for a breakfast in dead wood,
that invited birds in
like a street cafe
but, no charge levied.
Here my tunnel concealed me,
from the reality of bustling
people, peeping horns of traffic.
Children screeching,
dogs barking aloud.
No, I will stay in my
tunnel, under the cannopy
of swaying trees,
in peace and harmony.
No charge levied.

Orange leaves curl
Dawn chorus an echo only
Dew lies glistening

The V trail led by
Mr duck, was rippling
at a fast speed.
He, seeking bread floating
on top of the water
dropped by the hand
of a wee daughter.
Without invite, a skimming
ot 6,7 more ducks flew in
landing too with a din.
The childs delight was plain to see,
she giggled and nearly toppled
in to swim too, her father
held her reins fast with a laugh.
Breakfast at an end,
and all was quiet again.

Women are from Venus?
This orb so similar to the
one with which you
are familiar
Yet, vastly different
in ways that
explain
why you often
feel smothered
By-product breath
three thousand feet
underwater
leaves you
drowning
by design
Women must be from Venus
Morning or evening stars all
the same
these volcanic emotions
lava-hot
fuel the passion
-flames in her eyes-
that say you are wanted
with a look, smile
a touch only for you
You see yourself
in her clouds
the first mirrors for so many
past
now
tomorrow

On a cold, windy Autumn day
Stared fallen Maple leaves
Witnessed a golden ray
Disguised in old clay;
Heat of the chills
Brought arousing thrills
Sparking dimmed ashes
Never burnt as if;
Far i see some Life
Fire in belly still survive
For the love of thrust
Simmers and die;
Gone are fuel bearers
We again must unite
Warmth within let ignite
Fight lest we thrive !!

Such is a bare, naked forest
Now late in October
Undressed of her regal robes
Lying scattered and tattered
All around her chilled floor
Her boney fingers extended
Twisted darkly pointing
Upwards and accusingly towards
A new canopy of winter stars
