TRIUMPH OF SPIRIT IN LOVE, NATURE & ART

Whirling October

Fleet-footed October

with

leaves floating down

swirling

in

whirlwinds

while days dance away

as the last leaf-colored

butterflies

flutter by

before you know

 turtles

 will bury  deep

 for a long winter’s sleep

    • Thank you, Paul! Know that I appreciate the poems you reblog but have already “liked” them once. Hoping to get back to your book– had a short vacation for hubby’s birthday. Hope things are going well for you.
