Whispered Dreams

October comes sneaking

on the cool north breeze

dressed in her fiery finery

while baring a bouquet

in the myriad hues of dyeing

to lay at summers grave

A graveyard in winter twilight granite adorned in crystals of white

while sentries of sleeping oaks stand weary guard in the fading light

in this quiet place where the used bodies go

spirits silently waltzing to the rhythm of the falling snow

where the sand

meets the sea

The sky opens

the thunder rolls

and its good to

have a friend

Our Skin betrays We plunge at the Mercy of fevered minds… hungry hearts Devouring delights like children with Christmas candy……

(It’s such a delicious fall)

~

Sing me a story

Tell me a song

~

Fill your cup with moonlight

The stars will hum along

~

Evergreen hiding behind shinning multi-colored electric stars and globes of red and blue Aroma of snowy cedar and peppermint candy canes with the promise of sugar-plum dreams

Dying amidst children laughing as caroling voices sing Longing for its mountain home for bird’s song and squirrels at play quiet awakening growing tall with one more spring day
