Frost
icy autumn breath
a sliver of the full moon
gazes down on me
–
morning run-
frozen leaves
crunch underfoot

Leaves
a single oak leaf
silently floats through the air
under azure skies
–
twelve again-
shuffling through
a pile of leaves
Scotland
coastal bittersweet-
north winds blow the raging sea
against the breakers
–
highland cliffs-
amethyst heather
in bloom
Sunlight
sensing acceptace
evil walks in the daylight
no longer afraid
–
sunlight-
insects scatter
from prying eyes
Reckoning
staring at myself-
the bottom of a shot glass
looking back at me
–
oasis-
an empty carcass
in the sand
Silver
waning pewter clouds
part to reveal the dark moon
hidden in plain sight
–
silver threads-
weaving by
moonlight
Plummet
disoriented
twisted, I fall through my dreams
and land in my bed
–
ephemeral-
fire across
the evening sky
Sun
the fall of the year-
bare limbs of towering trees
reaching for the sun
–
sunrise-
amber leaves
on the water
Lost
years of wasted time
of opportunities lost
and then you were gone
–
ancient water-
black scales sink
beneath the surface
Chill
late autumn evenings-
tarnished copper trees framing
skies of polished bronze
–
crisp air-
hunting in
the night sky
