October 31, 2015

Bowl full of candy,
what if none is left for us?
Hallowe'en horrors.

October 30, 2015

Sleepy with autumn,
I await my first cup of
tea- I need a boost.

October 29, 2015

Leaves flutter down, we
fall into bed earlier-
we wait for spring's kiss.

October 28, 2015

Nuzzle, nip, nuzzle,
nip, lick, chomp! My morning cat
grooming session ends.

October 27, 2015

Cat's dish, bare middle,
certain looming starvation-
plaintiff meows rise.

October 26, 2015

Various low hums
fill house, but I'm silent- my
brain does a hushed jig.

October 25, 2015

Muscles burn and scream,
"how could you return to squats?"
Brain calls for ice cream.

October 24, 2015

Hallowe'en candy
gathered, we await children-
we buy more candy.

October 23, 2015

Cat lingers longer
in the warm bed- autumn makes
all of us sleepy.

October 22, 2015

Loud mews, eyes open,
blazing sun, cup of tea- my
brain opens, spills forth.

October 21, 2015

Juvenile tree hides
many secrets, they slip free-
hungry birds forage.

October 20, 2015

Foggy morning, dark
past rising, damp, chill- long for
sweet summer mornings.

October 19, 2015

Mist and cloudy gloom,
apt weather for my Monday
mood- dream Friday dreams.

October 18, 2015

Morning in dreamland,
afternoon daydreams, nightly
slumber- it's Sunday.

October 17, 2015

Morning after, we
contemplate our new roles- niece
allows us to dream.

October 16, 2015

Morning arrival
changes my life forever-
ten fingers, ten toes.

October 15, 2015

Sunny autumn's day,
orange rays to guide my niece-
I become an aunt.

October 14, 2015

A warm nook to sleep,
till the morning frost is gone-
animals are wise.

October 13, 2015

Long weekend over,
time for the sun to emerge-
Mother Nature's joke.

October 12, 2015

So much for a walk,
it's more cozy at home- rain
patters on the roof.

October 11, 2015

It shouldn't be just
this weekend we give thanks- each
day brings something new.

October 10, 2015

What is the morning,
without a fine cup of tea-
as dark as the night.

October 9, 2015

Long weekend awaits,
we ponder why we're thankful-
families embrace.

October 8, 2015

Tested, weighed, poked, and
prodded by doctors- no cure
for anxious poets.

October 7, 2015

A brilliant fall
day replaced by pouring gloom-
the autumn unfolds.

October 6, 2015

Slovenly humans!
That's what cats must think- daily
bath is not enough.

October 5, 2015

Reminiscing 'bout
when I was in school- I don't
miss those distant days.

October 4, 2015

A warm cup of tea
fills me with optimism-
at least for a while.

October 3, 2015

Groggy Saturday,
blue skies can't lure me out- the
cat feels otherwise.

October 2, 2015

Fall brings reflection,
ponderings on the next year-
stop, pick up chestnuts.

October 1, 2015

Waiting for my first
niece, sleepless night, excitement-
the future arrives.
