Scent of lilac shared with friends
-Natures gift of spring

Those forgotten friends
highway sunsets, roadside signs
-left turns of my life

Bright flashes in a lifetime
that lit up my soul for you

Just as day begins
And nighttime’s shadows fade
Sunlight paints the sky

My Happy Place

Turned off the news and went outside… Life is better with the volume turned down!
Tumbling

Tumbling orange leaves
dancing on grey horizon
keeping winds rhythm

Settled down for just a beat
soon winter’s reach will find them
