| 'That Afternoon Breeze' 20x20" oil pastel; Kathleen Faulkner |
In these warm last days of summer
I am noticing the change
Light is different moody
and the blackberries are so ripe
I try to pick them
but they are soggy now from the first rains
others have missed the season
they won't make it past that lovely blush of pink
the leaves are starting to turn
night comes a little earlier
and morning is beginning to show off
it's dew covered webs
I'm lost in these thoughts
then that afternoon breeze
comes dancing around my head
waking me up
sending me on my way.
