The Leaf Pile

Gather leaves, fallen down
Pile them high, above the ground
Into a stack, up to the sky
Are you ready to watch them fly?

Run at full speed, jump right in
Feet first, diving, do it again!
Toss the leaves, into the air
Laugh and play without a care

 

We all need a reminder of our childhood days every once in awhile.  I have fond memories of jumping in leaf piles, although I’m pretty sure my dad didn’t find it amusing.  On this Throw Back Thursday, I hope this reminded you of your childhood, too….

Autumn Skies

autumn, Autumn Skies, Fall colors, leaves, Night Owl Poetry, poems, poetry

Dreary dawn
Chilled, raw
When gray clouds
Cover blue skies
And diminish the light
That warms

Restless winds
Blow to a rhythm
A howl
Unheard, a whisper
Past your ears

Leaves fall
Spiraling down
A silent death
In colors splendid
Orange, red and yellow
Mask the dull
Of a colorless day

Colorful changes

As life continues

Releasing the old

Making way for the new

Caught in the breath

Of nature’s sigh

The cool autumn breeze

Carries my thoughts

Upon the falling leaves

As they float through the air

On a journey unknown
