This Autumn Trail 2013

Such is the leaves which depart,
They’ll flutter down along these empty trails,
With those sudden fog drifts which prevail,
This moment we’ll touched the branches that become bare,
For here we've waited long below the trees,
Looked and saw the time that no one else would care,
Thousands upon thousands of autumnal colored forms,
Fill each space below us here at Jordan River,
That are weathered and worn,
Soon…but not too late,
All will crumble and decay too supplement,
When the darkness has filled this forests increment,
But this cool misty light will guide us on,
Once more in a sense,
This autumn trail found...but felt our absence.

Landscapes in Which To Dream 2012

Those are the dreamy landscapes,
Perfect as this autumn scene,
With those sudden cold spells,
Moving deeper into this territory of Castlegar,
Which we have seen,
Never remember those leaves,
Their shapes we know,
But their colors shift into the hues that show,
And in time they’ll seem to fall,
The rains cool with its liquid volume,
Cascading the many washes over us below,
Foliage will release when its time has come,
We will depart from this very woodland heart,
And all will return in spring when the songbirds begin to sing.
