Day: September 10, 2012

smoke signals
white puffs in the sky blue
save my day

cross bars in the winds
built by forest masons
homes in the trees

perched
standing sentry
nests built & eggs laid
migrating south
to fields only for the young

tangled grape vines
hang in suspension
not really free

Oh, my whispered breath! ~~~~~

morning’s early dawn
tumbles into a cool autumn day
dawn’s first light roams
with fingers pulling at will
streams of silvery veils
up the mountain side
and above the lake
vapors rise
as if trying to stop the day
but then relinquishes to the
mighty morning mist

Oh my whispered breath! ~~~~~
