September fades, long
days a distant memory-
sunny days a treat.

September 29, 2017

On this dull grey day,
I remember sun-filled walks-
close my eyes, fall's gone.

September 28, 2017

Brought in from garden,
little treasure of nature-
Autumn Cyclamen.

September 27, 2017

Sunny afternoon,
fall's spare beauty inspires me-
can't capture nature.

September 26, 2017

A fair day to gaze

upon the calm sea below-

contemplate fall storms.

September 25, 2017

Drought stricken trees gulp
gladly at cool autumn rains-
is the dry spell done?

September 24, 2017

Fog rolls over town,
week closing in on us- no
escape from Monday.

September 23, 2017

A sunny fall day,
perfect for a stroll- but tea
at home sounds good too.

September 22, 2017

Dramatic seascape
stretches out beneath me- hill
perch not just for birds.

September 21, 2017

Fresh morning breeze, sun
peeking through swaying trees- fall’s
soft blue skies above.

September 20, 2017

Yesterday’s view can’t
lure me out today- dark clouds
make couch too tempting.

September 19, 2017

First chestnuts of fall,
new texture for little hands-
baby's first autumn.

September 18, 2017

A new beginning,
for an old bulb- September
can lead to new growth.

September 17, 2017

Grey clouds constrict, dark
pushing in closer, rain falls-
weekend washes off.

September 16, 2017

Fall chrysanthemum,
yellow beacon leads me on-
autumn’s not all bleak.

September 15, 2017

Summer’s last roses
remind us of autumn’s blight-
seize the sunny days.

September 14, 2017

Who needs a lit fire,
with scarlet Gladiolus-
summer’s last embers.

September 13, 2017

Autumn approaches,
summer's last show wows- feast your
eyes before winter.

September 12, 2017

When you reach out for
my hand, my heart melts- I’ll be
there for you always.

September 11, 2017

Grab some shut-eye here
and there, people say it gets
better- I wonder. . . .

September 10, 2017

Summer’s skeleton
is starting to show- fall’s bones
pile up around us.

September 9, 2017

Rainy Saturday
morning brings guests to visit-
will you stay for tea?

September 8, 2017

Yes, self, you’ve convinced
me- it’s glum outside, I’ll just
drink warm tea inside.

September 7, 2017

A nice place to perch,
on a drab, cloudy day- bright
flowers cheer us all.

September 6, 2017

Sunset sun at noon,
hazy day, meagre birdsong-
sombre September.

September 5, 2017

Is this what we have
to look forward to ‘till next
spring? Fall torpor hits.

September 4, 2017

Could fall be almost
here? Soft lavender autumn
crocuses confirm.

September 3, 2017

A longer sleep, a
stack of pancakes, summer fruit-
off to a good start.

September 2, 2017

Your hand in mine, we'll
conquer the world together-
one step at a time.

September 1, 2017

In this together,
pledge you’ll bear with me- babies
don’t have manuals.
