We plunge blind into
fall, chestnuts plummeting- spring
waits on other side.

September 29, 2015

Foggy windows hide
the glorious autumn day-
soon trees will be bare.

September 28, 2015

I'll never be cold
snoozing, as my cat sleeps on
my head- fur nightcap.

September 27, 2015

Under autumn blue
skies, cat soaks up precious rays-
winter is coming.

September 26, 2015

Thai dishes to share,
family to listen, care-
lunch without compare.

September 25, 2015

Quarter of a year
till that season of excess-
return to workouts.

September 24, 2015

Grey day, cat won't play,
back to bed, he lays his head-
without sun he'll stay.

September 23, 2015

Opposed election
signs shout promises- they fall
on deaf jaded ears.

September 22, 2015

Blue skies make him mew
at door- cat wants to be free
as a tasty bird.

September 21, 2015

Hot cat on a couch
back, basking in sun- cool rug
will receive him soon.

September 20, 2015

Sunday gloom reminds
us weekend draws to a close-
back to work we go.

September 19, 2015

A baby shower
to welcome my first niece- age
brings us fresh wonders.

September 18, 2015

He resents laptop,
he'd rather sit on my lap-
cat sits on laptop.

September 17, 2015

Dreams unite me with

friends from the past- I toss, turn

trying to hold them.

September 16, 2015

Demanding meows
herd me through my day- only
he knows what he wants.

September 15, 2015

I watch the world pass,
solitary but for cat-
perfect company.

September 14, 2015

More comforting than
pain pills, he sleeps by my side-
his purring heals me.

September 13, 2015

Appetite lost, I
sleep for hours and pick at soup-
post surgery blues.

September 12, 2015

Home from hospital,
I struggle to stay awake-
sleepy Saturday.

September 11, 2015

Hunger pains, I long
for tea, not this kind of morn.
Vile medical fast.

September 10, 2015

Fog in the morning,
condensation on windows-
must be September.

September 9, 2015

Simmering chicken,
awaiting vegetables,
rice- soup September.

September 8, 2015

End of vacation,
millions glum, cloudy day-
no coincidence.

September 7, 2015

A sunny Monday
to lift our spirits- Tuesday,
back to the real world.

September 6, 2015

Forecast misses mark,
no surprises there- exist
in cloudy limbo.

September 5, 2015

His share of tuna,
devoured in seconds- content
cat purrs by my side.

September 4, 2015

September sun does
not lure cat from heating pad-
cat extends weekend.

September 3, 2015

Abrupt end to hot
summer days, long and carefree-
falling to winter.

September 2, 2015

Communication
has broken down- emails, texts,
often just silence.

September 1, 2015

This glum grey morning
could only mean one thing- our
summer has slipped past.
