Running

on the edge of tomorrow, the start of the new year. line up the days, clear out the haze. there's nothing to fear.

Many lights if colors

see the trees filled. 

we saw rabbits last night and this morn.

 cold and wet now. and we've two weeks until January.

 the days are long. Darrel what did i say sixty years ago at Christmas break? 

That we'd be back and wonder where the time went.

Working on

we've watched the weather coast 

now December has about run out. 

no snow has lasted, but the season is hardly past. 

i suppose snow season may begin, any time, with short warning. 

we'll see. yes we will. 

keep your gloves handy.

running faster toward the holidays circling on the calender wraping cookies

how did it cure?

see if this puts i am on different lines. what say?

on the ground

snow on the ground will melt today.

 all away. we've seen the last coming down.

 nothing more have i to say, about snow. 

 gone, you know ... for this year. 

getting ready now for pizza, and warm afternoons. 

want to pass through the virus phase, come out the other side. 

see friends face to face. the regular old human race. 

go out for breakfast. 

take our time rolling through the back-country. 

watching the sun-shine, 

and the corn grow.

 

 

Green again

lost all snow, picked up rain a solid day of it. sets another mood. a return to wood. should and am be happy for what could. is late fall again an early winter twin; yet warmer, a good season golden are fields and sky. dont know why. peaceful feeling. u will work again and lineup sides,

White days

bunny tracks cover the yard, easy to see, not that hard. scarcely a blemish to be found. of course rabbits hardly make a sound.

Pompeii on tv

snow and Rome in very cold weather. 

 here is cold, not Rome two thousand years ago. 

 been waiting winter, heard today it isn't officially here yet. 

 how much else do you need?

 i think we're set. 

 i'll think on this. 

geese - the significant

when driving in a dream there is
no need to signal, yet i cordially wave and smile.
traffic heavy melts together on the road,
shut my eyes and nod off into a cat nap.

in a splash, came to wakeful senses
i did in a crowd. horns honking.
waved back, had the change,
paid the toll. told myself i could finish

this dream, in an hour, if i rush.
hit the gas, checked the time
and then realized an hour had already passed.
time flies, you know, some say, they’re right, some time.

took another bite of sandwich,
chewed slowly while i wondered
where i got it and how to hold it
with two hands while driving?

seemed mayonnaise enough to me ,
i smiled at the hearty bread, tasty as reality,
with long green salty seeds in it,
and the tomato slipping out.

aware that all the red was taillights
all the honking were wild geese
making restful music as i
closed my eyes to finish dreaming.

thinking the one last conscious thought,
that i like geese, i really do.
never met one though to get to know,
i’d surly like to

 

 

Too tight

tv camera shots are too tight. duck your head. smooth your hair out. lineup, Andy relax ... be real take your time. here's the deal ... easily said

No threat snow now

over the great lakes how'd we escape? a snow bomb. nearby but not here. plowed pretty good all around, again we lucked out. saw it blast, accumulation passed. we got by another time.

What you like

thick grey cloud cover seals us in neighbor. here its noon and i realize nothing has gone by all day. not a person, auto, dog or squirrel. rabbits have been gone two months it seems. time will catch up. we'll smile again.

Development

wood crates two days later i read to see what i was talking about. no solution, only a guess. things are moving along. fine? moving. take care as you roll along. i like crates.

on edge of sorts

keep running for dogs sake. nothing special, a regular trot will sufice. thereis not much ice. how are plates wih birds on GOING, seems a slow winter day and wih light falling snow i know the season.

seeking where this is. old computer unfmaliar

No snow winter cold a bit

it's nice out there 

when you're fully bundled 

and warm is how i'm wrapped. 

crumpled in a package. 

 

Good for taking me outside 

up and down the drive. 

feel alive. sakes alive

 snowflakes

 

 

 

Good light

the combination of seasons, this and the last. winter is a hint. dark is quicker. rereading A ken follett. after thirty years it's like the first time. a fine author for me.

Election is happening finally

been waiting a long, long while. enough. need it all behind. have reading and writing to do. my words have been shallow. could use a referendum i even feel i've gained a pound. look at the stars or remember the sea at night; what a hevenly scent. from land you see the stars, from the sea you can't see them well. i think of stars in my dreams. sparkling stars come aboard and yes, swimming. that's good dipping.

October is over now

we finish today then that's it. costumes, candy for kids. dark sky and wind puffs. no music, a lag. a drag on festivities. indians were the people first to know this land walked beaches thick with sand. followed the endless stars by so many plants and trees. under sun moon and mars, this i'n working to put togethero

Warm and Wonderful

late in fall season. temperatures are hospitable. very still this morning. you see many fallen leaves as the early sun shines through the trees. my coffee is luke warm but drinkable ... that's cause i'm slow. Meri is making scrambled eggs

One for the golden gate

forty years ago or so 

when we crossed the joyous bridge, 

our hearts filled with everything that should be. 

they are, we are, completly.

 tai chi, chinese food, boats, happy. good friends, 

bay crossings. the best seasons, rain, wind. the scent of water, 

always. gladness in our hearts. 

 

 

Sufficient tints to amaze

 

brilliance resounds beyond believeability 

just when it seems unavailable. 

digest the morning scene.

 hurl a beam. peaches and cream.

 satisfy your dream.

 where there's love in between, 

hugs help lots of things.

Horns aplenty

apple cider is nearly 

 

 

ready. we can heat it

 on cool nights. 

sounds the way we've always 

done i don'f say it's 

regular this time of year.

 could seem so. should we 

practically expect it? 

 i can't for sure say one way or 'nuther.

Dancing today

the full hour filled with joy. 

 

moving as best we can, 

these old folks tapping the boards, 

 an hour's worth, 0h boy. 

 we'll keep old heads together. 

tap it out. an hour, 

minutes, that's right

 a good afternoon. 

 dressed and mentally able. 

yes. we are.

Sadly darkened

a spot on my neck hardly noticed felt this Sunday secondarily. overlooked though seen before. the doctor will check me today. unlike cars that whip by so quickly i see no more than a blure.

Ruffled clouds on high

who's that guy in the sky? 

0h my? why am i so bygone? 

a song's worth. i measured, 

that's how much. 

how often out of touch. 

 that such, so much. ruffled.

Found the noteboard

there plain as day 

could be seen what i say 

 is what is said you know come what may

 then blown away 

so write it down while it's around 

 have it your way

 i'll dot my noteboard.

Huddle by the tree bushes

we've sun a lot today you see. you know the feeling. a bright run worth every ray. warms like an arm on your shoulder. when all is quiet this is our kind of day.

Cottontail

we are winding time in circles. weeks gather then pass. i'd sure like a bus pass plus an afternoon to go around skipping with the bunnies. great ambition.

Way do we have?

beginning this date, sort of. 

how can we say when day begins. 

you see it is not night. 

this is the tell. when you have the choice 

 it's one Way or all the other.
