Leaf Raking (a poem)

Leaf Raking

Swish Swish

A pile of red brown orange yellow

Gathers at my feet

I smell the crisp autumn odor

Wafting up from the ground

It’s not too hot

Not too cold

I can remember so easy now

Frolicking in leaf piles

As a child with my dog

So I do this chore happily

Because in my state of childhood abandon,

It’s so easy to forget

My adulthood sorrows

New Notebook (a poem)

New Notebook
Written March 3rd, 2011

I hold in my hands

The prettiest notebook

I ever did see

My mind racing with plans

Of things to write that will be worthy
