Thatcher Woods Revisited/Sylvan Nymph Initiation
Dry crunch of
Kaleidoscope
Leaves beneath
Our stumbling feet
We sauntered through
Thatcher Woods
Taking in deep
Crisp, brisk, bracing
Autumn flavored
Atmosphere
My hands held back
Against a tree
Mouth-open, red-hot
Scarlet kisses
Floated past my
Neck landing onto
Crimson red lips
Fallen jacket
Buffer for our
Descent onto
Nature’s golden
Forest pallet
Sylvan Nymph
Initiation
Commenced forthwith
Refastening
Jeans just in time
In the distance
Children’s laughter
Invading our
Sanctuary
As you, sacred love,
Gently brushed away
Leaves captured within
My long, wind-blown hair

Fall into Autumn - Autumn Artistry
Autumn Artistry
Trees adorned in
Varying hues
Of green, orange
Yellow and red
Playing, dancing
To the rhythms
Of a wild wind
Last lyrical
Celebration
The annual
Preparation
Readies the earth
For restful sleep

Dance Macabre mix by Mana Junkie
Fall into Autumn - Autumn and the Moon
Autumn and the Moon
The wind screamed
In circles
The sky wept
Trees shed sheathes
Of leaves that
Flew and joined
The debris
Of life in
A dance of
The macabre
As the moon
Choked on the
Dust and died

Fall into Autumn - Mid-October Sky
Fall into Autumn - Sunday Morning
SUNDAY MORNING
Branches of spruce jab
Through an opaque veil
As the sun slowly
Makes all crystal clear
Spectacular view
Emerges dressed in
The colors of fall
As we prepare to
Give thanks to God, our
Father almighty
