celebrating with the snow
winter’s scattered art

cloudy skies
threatening late-autumn snow

flower pollen, gentle breeze

Day 6 – Autumn Leaves | Poem a Day (NaNoWriMo)
leaves in the front yard
brown, windblown collages
snow melted and gonelooking forward once again
to icy streets and soft snow

Filling in for a missing day.
Day 13 – Unsettled Winter | Poem a Day (NaNoWriMo)
restless leaves dance
across the newly white grass
never still for longerrant winds stir them around
shaking off the falling snow

Day 29: Whatever it takes | #NaPoWriMo
Brewer: “For today’s prompt, write a response poem. Respond to whatever helps you get your poem written…”
dry leaves dance above—
leaping higher than treetops
stripped by April windsgreen shoots kissed by dirt and rain
pledge autumn one more harvest

This poem is in response to a poem not from this challenge, but one that I wrote for the 2008 SFPA poetry contest; the theme was “Energy”. The poem’s title is “Future Freedom”. It’s the second poem on this page of my QuiltedPoetry blog.
