Fall into Autumn - Gray November Day
GRAY NOVEMBER DAY
Drop
Drop
Drop
Leftover raindrops
Showering leaves
Shaken from trees
In a slight breeze
On a moody afternoon

NOVEMBER’S CHILD Loves to run wild Is full of fire Chasing desire On oysters dines Drinks the best wine All to beguile Enjoys your smile © Alice Vedral Rivera - 2005
Seattle Gray
On fire and In dire need
Of your love Seattle Gray hides my
Rain filled tears In mists of Overcast
Shades of pain © Alice Vedral Rivera 2010 - poem and photo
This poem is from ‘The T. Collection – A Retrospective’:
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

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
