early morning dew
flame still flickering
in the pumpkin

bales of hay
stacked in a maze
my favorite pumpkin

leaves fall like rain
the young girl
dances between the drops

deep in the woods
the leaves are still
tracks

Halloween night
a visit to the ER
as Marilyn Monroe

cool night with a full moon
children go door to door
collecting treats

three telephone poles
that I can see
foggy

the lonely tree stands
by the lake
fog

CHAMPION

BOTTOM half champion

walking through the park
a leaf falls
on my head

falling acorns
dropping from the tree
hazard zone

in the woods around
the bend
deer

frosty morning
the deer senses danger
along the ridge

BOTTOM half champion

bottom quarter champion

one empty chair
everyone gathers to the table
to give thanks

turkey in the oven
table set for
      one

snow covered ground
pumpkin spice latte
warms my hands

October now
a hummingbird drinks
one for the road
