The rain falling down
dictates outfit, hooded coat.
In fall tea tastes best.

does not worry sleeping cat.
I’m awake thinking.

Cool mist is rolling
up my street from the ocean.
Fog horns call sadly.

In the morning sun,
your beautiful silhouette.
Centre of my world.

Playing with language.
Arranging the syllables,
creating haiku.

Piles of sodden leaves,
on the barren boulevard.
Inside Bearss lime blooms.

The dandelion
blowing in the wind spreads seeds.
I weed the garden.

Humble words, arranged certain
ways make poetry.

Cleaning up rotten
jack-o’-lantern from front steps.
Autumn is fading.

I can’t understand
the cat’s insistent meows.
Check Google Translate.

My patch of sunlight
grows smaller in short fall days.
I seek new warmth, you.

The furnace rumbles.
Late fall sun doesn't warm me
sitting by window.

The racket next door
of renovations plagues me.
My mind is quiet.

Rain falls steadily
from miserable grey skies.
I’m happy inside.

Calories counting
makes me sorry for myself.
Weighing my options.

Cat meows to go
out. Rain. Wet paw prints on deck.
Loud yowls at the door.

Weak autumn sunshine
sets the coloured leaves afire.
Dull grey days ahead.

Stunning colour of
green eyes in the morning light.
Do you see my soul?
Tuesday, November 12, 2013

Staring into the
distance, pondering my life.
Live in the present.

Three poppies in mind,
marking my family’s place,
in rows with heroes.

Why are ten pins so
difficult to knock over?
Bowling gutter balls.

Combining simple
ingredients for a cake.
Chocolate is magic.

Constant amazement
observing your daily growth.
Amaryllis bulb.

Bowl of rocks, water,
can nurture Paperwhite bulbs.
Your love makes me grow.

Jostling with the cat
for a place in the sunshine.
Armchair politics.

Marching steadily,
time is passing as I wait
Patience wearing thin.

The cat’s purring is
lost below furnace droning.
It’s quiet outside.

Thick blanket of frost
glimmers in the morning sun.
It’s time to fall back.

Driving rain cancels
my stroll through Victoria.
Tea and book instead.

The candy is gone.
November has come with grey
heralding winter.
