A new poem

Autumn’s Promise

The promise of Autumn’s
Sweet
Chill
Kiss
Gives rise to energies forgotten
While in the midst of Summer’s
Sloth
Doldrum
Recline

Memories long dormant
Challenge and escape to the surface
Cloying
Aged
Musings

Tears well at relived
Joys and tragedies
Knocking
Calling
Embracing

Let down calloused walls
Allow childlike soul to
Emerge
Refreshed
Renewed

Ken Goree

Bright Autumn

Bright
Autumn
The green sucked
From broad Maple
Leaves
To reveal fiery
Yellow,
Red,
Orange

Robin
Is singing
His farewell
Song

Spiders begin
Seeking
Shelter
From the
Storm
And
Chill

Warm quilt
Wraps my
Body
As I sip
Coffee
And watch
The change
Speeding
Toward
Me


Ken Goree
