Morning wind,
white-capped waves.

Autumn hues,
brown and pale green,
turning to earth,

hearts spring open
in wind and color.

  1. Don — Perfect verse for today! The Fall Foliage in bursting forth in color here in SE Wisconsin today. Thanks for sharing.
    PS: Your poem is “short & sweet.” Just like we like our homilies/sermons!
    PPS: I love Bill Evans music!

  2. I readily resonate with your words here, Don. Rhythmically raking the Autumn leafs here in my yard, my sprung-open heart feels a perfect harvest in process! It’s pure Art for Art’s sake — in that, after I’ve gathered up one day’s yield, the next day’s newness looks as pristinely untouched as ever! All the while, Blessings manifest amid my sharing in the process itself.
