Quietly hanging above my head, / You protect me from myself. / The shadows, escapees from my darkest thoughts,

Never Forget - A Journal Entry
Today is September 11, 2012. / Last night, on September 10, 2012, I went to bed thinking about classes the next day, things that had to be done, money that had to be spent. I thought about problems in my relationships, things to fix those problems. I thought about the horse whom I'd spent most of the evening riding. I didn't think about the anniversary of the tragedy that happened 11 years ago. / When I woke up this morning, I got ready for school, made sure I had my homework done, grabbed a mug of coffee on the way out the door, and shivered in the morning chill of autumn. I got in my car and turned on the heat, waited for the windows to defrost, and pulled out of my driveway. I didn't think about the anniversary of the tragedy that happened 11 years ago.

She stands with dignity in the middle of the field / Perks her ears at the sound of my boots. / She swings her big head toward me and looks.

Love and Autumn (Haiku)
Your eyes are autumn / The dance of the leaves falling / Whispering secrets
