THE DICTATES OF OLD MAN WINTER







The epic battle of the seasons.
Old Man Winter 
erase all signs of Fall.
He covers the ground 
with his icy cold snow.
But Fall holds her leaves close
to her body and her heart.
Some have fallen,
lone casualties of war.
The battle rages
on the ground,
in the air,
and on the water.
Fall will have to succumb
to the dictates of Old Man Winter.
She has no choice.
She puts up a valiant battle.
She will be back after Summer
finishes heating the earth.
Farewell.
We’ll see you soon.

A DREAM




Rays of sunshine color my world.
In shades of yellow and green.
Palm trees wave in the breeze.
Cooling my face on this summer day.
I bathe my face in the cold water.
Water droplets let loose in the humid air.
Soon my body is floating on the water.
As it carries me downstream.
I don’t care if my clothes get wet.
I must follow my dream on this hot day.
