Cozy Contemplations
Chapter 17 Imminent Arrival
Ode to Buckthorn
Black berries abound
Squishing unavoidable
As laden branches
Slowly lighten their bounty
Along my peppered walkway
Ceasefire
Temporarily
A truce is implemented
As nature retreats
Pruner and mower retired
Until spring glory bursts forth
Haunting
Sudden stream of air
Careens indecisively
Through silent forest
Magnifying eeriness
As it sets me shivering
Harbinger
The smell of fall rain
Is so different from spring’s
Infused with decay
Declaring and reminding
All living things have their time
Slippers
Condensation drips
And a cloud forms from warm breath
Fogging the window
Suggesting it’s time for wool
And firing up the furnace
