bright Thanksgiving day
drinking eggnog on the porch
sunshine and crisp leaves

from the window --
watching falling leaves

Schooled by a Sock

Don't Judge a Look 'til You Hover

I was just schooled by a
black sweat sock
lying in the middle of the road.
I was 100 percent certain it was a
tied-up doggie doo bag
until I was right up on it.

the leaves mimicking
the sound of raindrops in the
wooded autumn hills
