A Leaf Entered Today
A leaf landing upon a new plaid shirt,
Caught-up in the hysteria gusting,
Such July wind fashioned a warm convert,
For sleeves rolled-down, temperature adjusting,
This unseasonal code makes-do to trend,
Black and white weave with harmonious blend.
Does a mirror-image please with justice?
When a change in the air is imminent,
Solace found beneath Ash so augustus,
Where pianist leaflets play eminent,
And peace walks the mind dreaming diurnal,
That leaf of ours marking this day's journal!
Rhyme with a fragrance for posterity,
So it may be worn again with sang-froid,
This breeze reminds of Nature's parity,
And rediscovery of who we are,
To hope this life is thus worthwhile,
Hence raised Zephyr proves true upon this isle.

Autumn So True
Autumn so True
What of Autumn’s responsibility?
Is it now revealing civility?
For the dearth of covering emotion,
Concealment is a futile notion,
When facing one’s fears over years’ amassed,
We are in the service of Nature cast,
Change needn't alter the light which is sought,
Under a frisky breeze mild with bliss brought,
A mind meanders memorial fields,
Harvesting times gone for such future yields,
As may be prayed for, the Sun wields grace,
Fine lines with refine dreams a perfect space,
In which to walk wide-eyed and so alive,
There’s no substitute where we strive to thrive,
And love abounds with inhalations d
All Along the Morning Path
Morning calls the day well ahead of itself,
A new day for ageing year’s inner self,
No crime on the horizon of deep fears,
Just a sun arising from sleepless tears,
Tracing the face of such a nice calm day,
Misty choice dawns upon clarity’s way,
The heart and soul of October consoles,
Whose sunbeams hit the road of driven goals,
Without a shadow light behind us leads,
Now all is well, all is clear, life proceeds,
Mid-morn accustoms the norm with routine,
Till we spin seeking direction to glean,
For our turn, our choice, our newly-found voice,
Steers constant, journeying prayer can rejoice,
In light of hope blessing wrong turns with
Guided
Guided,
By Stars,
From four corners,
Of this World,
Guided,
Brightly,
From their Souls,
To my World,
Guided.

Mercy (Love Comes Again)
Mercy (Love Comes Again)
Love puts a different complexion on it,
So much so we can fall and then admit,
Losing ourselves I am gone once again,
With autumnal tide confides pure domain,
One-in-a-million still seeks the one,
That wonders alone like soft sounds of Sun,
Briefly-found and duly-bound mercy be,
Where love comes again through a valley tree,
More than we know invincible life play;
Performs and never conforms this fine day,
There’s no end for open hearts embracing,
The sky decorates homely Earth placing,
Light within for darkness perceiving cold,
Those beautiful days pave dreams thus told,
Of belief whence a golden
