No one came knocking,
No strange sounds or shapes intrude
On our peaceful night.

Sitting in the dark,
Listening to my music...
Dylan and Springsteen.

I, too, have grown old,
Not planning to live this long,
Not ready to leave.

After the rain ends,
The leaves covering the street
Making a path for me.

It's far past midnight,
And my mind will not let go.
So I sit and write.

Sitting in the sun
Even in late October
Warms body and soul

Riding in the car,
Driving into the sunset,
Blinded by the light.

Sparrows in the trees,
Chattering at each other,
And, as well, at me.

Today, a cold rain,
An autumn rain, constant,
Dripping from the trees.

Small things...birds singing
When I wake, the sun breaking
Through the clouds, music.

Geese overhead as
The days and nights grow cooler,
Flying who knows where.

Late one night, I saw
This orchid by a window.
And now it is here.

The wind bends the trees,
Leaves now nature's percussion,
Not a night for sleep.

Watching the sun set.
Black clouds drift past red and
Yellow horizon.

A constant drumbeat
Assaulting us all, so all
We want is silence.

Hanging in the sky,
The crescent moon shines against
A curtain of black

Up before sunrise.
The day just a distant glow.
Mists shroud the houses.

October sunset,
Before the leaves have fallen.
Watching the light fade.

Bright sun, cool breezes…
October arrives in style.
Glad to be alive.
