Autumn's Evergreen
Autumn is when you left
and the feelings inside of me were storm clouds,
each drop of rain an emotion

Relief
Fear

Feet pounding on leaf scattered trails

In the fall,
The geese fly south.
As October wind blows cold, they flap their wings, persistent in their steady V.

Winter's Demons- a scary story.
Some say that in the winter, when the shadows are long and the bare branches of the trees reach out with long, crooked fingers, that that is when the dead come out.

What is a Poem?
What is a poem?
Well, a poem is a song.

If I could run away, I’d be gone. I’d clamber up the fence onto the roof and take off running. I’d bound up into the air and across the fields of puffy white clouds, bouncy and weightless.

Catharsis
If not for the moon
that pulls the ocean tide up,
revealing raw sand,
then when would the sea
be able to thrash waves
when only at stillness?
And the surface water sits,
heavy on its floors
