Before you know

Orange, green, yellow
Floating, flying, falling
Smell the pumpkin pie spice
Grandma's apple pie

Jack-o-laterns flicker
Santa on the shelf
Turkeys fill the freezers
Valentines is almost here

Stars and stripes, bow your head
Firecrackers before you know
Swimming, splashing, sprinklers
School shopping shoes and clothes

Cycle, seasons, on we go
Forgotten beauty passes on
Orange, green, yellow
Then the snow

Watch the leaves
Smell the flowers
Squish the mud between your toes
Enjoy while it is here

It will be gone before you know

Wrinkles

There I am

To find me, I searched far away
Deep within and without
Nowhere, everywhere
Hidden, flagrant
You, me

I was, I am, I will, I can
Journey far & wide
Search and find
Hunt & catch
Me, I

Eyes open, eyes wide
Vision yet blind
Stolen time
Away again
Must find

Hazy yet ever clear
Foggy & dissipate
Clean imagine
Clouds wane
Aura near

Me, I, You
Now we
Me
I
