Autumn days

Some words.

                                                               Autumn days

The Summer days were splendor,

long days, beach days, easy day.

The harmony of warm days and being sun-kissed.

Blessed days.

Now the nights are cooler,

the school bells are calling the grandchildren.

I have quiet days to reflex on the coming days of Autumn.

I love the charm of the Fall.

The September change of color,

fresh Michigan corn and apple picking with the grandchildren.

I roam alone to lake St. Clair and I burn some sage for my world.

I tell the moving lake,

please allow my world to know peace.

Please allow the cooler days,

to make the hate in my world turn to softness.

The negative words to hopeful words.

Was  a hard Summer for the grandchildren.

No fairs or carnivals.

We had many beach days and we were thankful for Lake St. Clair near.

The days of Autumn are here,

restless grandchildren need the days of Halloween and

interaction with other children.

Time for us to gather our minds,

make the right decisions and make our world wonderful again.

The Autumn days go quickly and I hope before the days of winter.

We have gain our sanity and we can forgive each other.

Time to befriend  people and lead with concern, kindness and love.

For the sake of all the children in our world.

We must get along.

Yes, we must get along. These are the "Days of Awe" in the Jewish religion. The days between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. These are the days we ask for forgiveness for wrong doing and grant forgiveness to those who have wronged us. The last six months have been hard not just for children, but for senior citizens and everyone in between too. May we soon see a return to normalcy. Your words are true and well written. Lydi**

Thank you dear Lydia. Poor children need a school, not a computer. A hard world for them.

[Just Kim]

This is so wonderful, I really enjoyed this write

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you my dear friend. A scary world for the children.

This is a great reflection on our troubled times Coyote. Even after just six months the freedom that we enjoyed and perhaps we can see now took for granted seems a long time away. I like how you have focussed on the simple yet important things in life.
I hope that all Americans can make a wise decision soon so that the country can focus on the real problem.
Take care,
Alan

Me too Alan. Need answers and the USA need to work as one. We must stand as one or fall alone. I pray for better days. Thank you for reading and the comment.

autumn falling
with heavy leaves
upon bipolar distemper.

I feel peace in
your piece

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you my friend. I like the September days. Seem calmer and easier.

we are approaching "that certain slant of light, winter's afternoon, which carries the heft of cathedral tunes"

More Autumn here and all nicely done
It has been one strange year and maybe it is not over and I also worry for the little one's futures
We do seem to be able to mess things up.

We must keep our children safe and thank you Dave for reading and the comment.

Another rallying cry for the world to unite instead of fight. Your reflections of the summer past as we slip into autumn capture the difficulties we have all faced in these Covid days.

[Coyote Poetry]

Was a hard Summer John. I hope the cooler days allow angry people to have cooler heads. Thank you for reading and the comment. I do appreciate.
