Fall is falling
On summer
Cool breezes
Are calling

Consider
This a sign
Of autumn's
Kisses bitter

September looms
Footballs kicked
Crops yielded
Harvest moons

Leaves color
Children learn
Transition
Like no other

Cool winds
Are swarming
Fall is falling
Life is turning

At Dusk

I ride at dusk
The fresh evening air
Kisses my moistened skin
Shadows dance for me
As I coast through the damp valley
Humor abounds at dusk
For the Earth experiences
Lighthearted confusion
Between day and night
Then, as if a switch was flipped,
Night wins the squabble
My lights guide me safely home
As I smile, filled with wonder,
Visions of the magic
Still glimmering in my mind
I ride at dusk

It is dark and cloudy today,
I believe a thunderstorm is on it's way,
Little raindrops land on my window pane;
Tiny little showers of rain.
Dark and beautiful was the sky,
With thick dark clouds floating way up high,
The sound of silence--calm before a storm;
And all the air is hot and warm.
Everything is so very dark today,
Signifying a storm is on its way,
When little drops of water land on your pane;
You know it's about ready to rain.

*~Marian~
I do believe a thunderstorm is on its way!! :)
So that is the inspiration for this poem!!
I hope it sounds okay!!! :) ~~~<3
For they are the best of me.
I am unashamedly in need of what
You cannot give me, so I ask for something simple.
Love my poems, and though your hand will never caress my pains away,
Loving words I share is sharing some of my distress and easing my difficult way ahead.
I will tell you one thing more.
I never met a poem here I did not like.
Not one.
There is only one kind of poem and it is: kindness.

Enticing tongues
Craving senses
Of un-daunting caresses
Trying to get rid
Of the bitter taste
In their throats

Unexpected paths
Of countless processes
Never resulting
In accomplishment
Though never fully lacking
In satisfaction

What It Is
That Has Me Flustered

What It Is
That Beats The Drum

What It Is
Has The Strength Of Many

But The Tinder Heart Of One

What It Is
That Gives Me Comfort

What It Is
That Brings Me Down

What It Is
Is What It Is

When No One Is Around

What It Is
Is At Face Value

What It Is
Reads Between The Lines

Silence Is The Sound It Makes

As What It Is
Makes The Sacrifice

What It Is
Begs To Differ

What It Is
Can Not Be Seen

What It Is
At This Very Moment

Is The Space Between You And Me
My story ends of sparkle,
Hands, winding me in fable
The dark lines of her lashing eyes
Are burning rings, shear ice,
Covering the lost ponds of spring,
To see her in the ripening fields
Is to know the myriad colours
Of flowers, wild with loneliness,
She is always numbering the days,
Always on parade, hair, with out end,
Tresses trailing the wind.
Know This
(A Cop's Creed)

I cannot shoot to only wound
For that requires you do not move
I shoot to stop you from a crime
So that I or others will not die

Once pulled my gun shoots to ****
Then what happens is God's will
Dont test the training that I have
For if you loose it will end up bad

If called to serve and protect a life
I will do my duty to do what's right
I do not wish to take a life
But I cannot chance that I will survive

No fear or flight will you ever see
I will stand my ground while others flee
So if ever I must pull my gun
Know this,........Your day is done
