autumn tundra
the colors deepen
near the shadows

autumn sunset
the clay’s shapes on the riverbed

fall Egg Harbor

buzzards circle the water tower

fall twilight storm
the red brightens in the drunk’s face

autumn light
the shadows of leaves
follow the wind

autumn bus stop
the moon trembles in the coffee cup

autumn chill in the boardwalk’s footsteps

Fall Journey

pumpkin patch
a chill in the sunlight

autumn slum
the red sky in puddles

September marsh
crow caws fade with the dusk

crushed pumpkin
the sun's rim dips behind the roof
