Fall Fantasy
XXI.
September 28, 2010
Ah - the feel of fall,Invisible, - and yet
Its ambience,
So palatable.
The aroma and taste
of a cinnamon raisin muffin,
Unlike a muffin
In the spring!
I sing the songs
Of autumn
In my soul,
Before the first leaf falls.

The Sunrise
When my eyes
Are sprinkled with flakes of gold
I know the sun is peeking
From his bed.
He’s not too old
To rise!
He’s lonesome and wants to play.
Says, “Don’t stay sleeping!
Get up instead!”

Reasons
Who needs a reason to be?
Reasons can get in the way
Of life.
Reasons can delay
The flow of life.
Reasons can
Dim the glow of life,
Ground its airborne flight,
~ Drown its ecstasy.
______© Nellieanna H. Hay
As flow is fed
So it distributes
Life ahead.

Samson lost himself
By needless alteration;
The non-integration
Was his key to pain.
But change
Which grows
From inside-out
Is highest,
Sweetest
Fullest gain.

tread softly ~
It's
my
soul.
