Summer Ending
time antiquing time, sepia afternoons
spent chasing coppery sundowns:
I feel summer ending through cold gripping autumn nights

From Anastasia to Home
Ocean midst drips on everything,
to old growth oaks, to stubby pines,
bay laurel and tree ferns, all weighed down and ready to perk back up;
It's not much different than our second trip to Maine and our departing day from the stormy Cape:
All things can glisten with new dimensional perspective,
reflect old points of happiness and then trail off in different ways.
With a lonely Floridian cold,
each turn hangs with little spanish moss,
hangs like neverending waves,
rolling white sand dunes and sparsely scattered beach grass swaying with the wind:
In whatever distance we create,
there remains our lifelines,
our escapes inside each other,
our fordged renewal and compromise -
An unrelenting balance of universal tow, speed-up and slow-down;
Here, from tinges of sadness, to footsteps facing conflicting directions,
from scattered sea shells and waves of reflection,
from Anastasia to home,
There's still a huge a part of you that will always be with me.
