Friday morning
fresh water
for the daisies

Saturday afternoon
yellow flowers
on a table in the sun

Sunday morning
clear sky above
sunrise clouds

morning grey

morning grey . . .
yellow leaf falls
and rests
on a branch

October Turns – another idea for the poem

This is another version of the poem I posted yesterday. I like both versions.

OCTOBER TURNS

strong cold winds

leaves fall
reveal shapes
of trees

light falls
into the house
as sun moves south

red geraniums
still bloom

October turns
to face November
