Fallen Maple

we will remember
her sweetness
when she warms us
this winter

Autumn Gold

affluence
of leaves
prosperity of color

Beacon Home

burning bright
in summer days
flowering lamppost

Sweet

the warm west wind
these chilling nights
and sugar runs

Crisp

autumn light
chisels colors
out of the blue

Residence

fall resides
on the far side
of the fence

Autumn’s Paint

colors run
in the wild
wet woods
