The moorings
dotting the harbor -
summer's silent oath

Knowing now
that the birds sing so early -
Motherhood

Shades of green
softly brushed onto
the bare, brown branches

Morning moon-
this quiet moment
between us 

The smell of pancakes
still softly lingering in
the mid-afternoon

Bare trees - 
A crisp view 
of the neighbors

Warm October Series

Summer stored
on a low shelf - 
Warm October

Warm October day
The beach gear somehow seeming
inappropriate

Pumpkin spice latte
on a warm October day - 
Mingling seasons
