The Beauty of Falling Leaves!
Fluttering in the wind floating from the sky
Dancing from here to there, a ballerina opus orchestrating a sonata for you and I
A masterpiece of art, artistic intermingled
colors, brushing lovingly upon canvas skins of awe
Vibrant gold and rustic red images painted by nature, it’s glorious leaves of fall
Yellows and brown leaves fading on the ground
Squirrels scratching beneath them burying their nuts
Wild things preparing for winter, birds flocking to fly away and not be back till Spring
Chipmunks scurrying, excitement everywhere
Oh! What a loving Fall, There’s nothing to compare!
Oh to be an artist and paint them for you to view
I am but a humble Poet, wishing that I could paint them Too!
Watching the falling leaves from my picture window!
Oh! How Beautiful the View!

Blossoms of fiery colors lifting souls, far beyond ourselves as there beauty quells our off-time sighs. Now all but gone as the stillness of the chill creeps in. plants of summer withering into the depth of winters grace awaiting for the white blankits embrace. Leaves falling in awesome silence to bearen ground awaiting much needed rest. The chills of night and cold winds of day guess winter is well on its way.

The hush before dawn
is fraught with poignant silence
as night turns to day
Trinkling sounds flow
through the air as the river
bounces over rocks
Deep silence abounds
and not a murmur to be heard
stillness shrouding all

Cast adrift your broken web still flutters
Now the dew has become a patterned frost
Hanging down off the ol' clacking shutters
One flapping loudly back and forth is tossed
Barn has gone unpainted another year
Tractor parked quiet in an open bay
Green cat eyes from beneath the hay bales peer
Its shaggy winter coat all tufted gray
Quiet now only the cold breeze echo
Its hollow and dry humming sounds sneer
Moving like waves down the browned grass meadow
Waiting for that first snowfall to appear
The sun slips quickly past the horizon
A scarecrow stands all tattered and wizened

Tectonic plates shift on the ocean's floor
thrusting upwards an enormous quantity of water
generating a wave that keeps increasing in size
as it moves on the ocean's surface
Attaining a massive height over a hundred feet
it races across the ocean at jet speed
tossing huge ships and boats like little toys
as it rushes towards the shore
It reaches the land with unstoppable force
journeying inland for many miles
changing streets and roads into raging rivers
sweeping away almost every thing in its path
Houses, trees, cars are tossed around and smashed
by the sheer momentum of the moving water
leaving a trail of debris on the land
and death and destruction in its wake

Time stopped two am
It said
I paused a while
Thinking about winding
Back time the clocks go back
Another hour in bed
More rem sleep for my restless head
More sheep to count
Before I can nod off to sleep
Restless I have become
Going to bed late
Counting time before I sleep
Exhusted I feel
When I wake all because I canonot sleep
Troubles on my mind make me ressless all the time
Weary I feel
Exhuated just because I cannot sleep
the clocks go back mmm more time I canot sleep
Eleven clocks I have to wind back tonight
Oh what a night mare
All because am counting
time

Ancient mountains brood
dominating the landscape
with majestic face

The old oak tree
Branch thick arms outstreached
Leaves falling
To the ground
Thickly they gather
Piled up high
Animals cower beneath their nest
The old oak
Sways in the cold winter breaze
Lustur gone now old branches broken
Leaves stripped bare
Naked branches exposed
Sways in the cold gray skies
Waits for spring then summmers lifes
Breeze

Glittering silver
shooting star arches the sky
disappearing fast

Happy pelican
eating an enormous fish
see his pouch bulging
Merry kingfisher
waiting on his pole for fish
he darts and spears one
Full of joy and fun
the skylark warbles in glee
delight in each note
Fearsome eagle drops
plummeting down like a stone
striking hard he kills
