“The moon is always there, but now, in the darkened night, it’s visible again” Gun Roswell
Shiny objects in the sky
Was it an unidentified fly by
Or just the crescent moon up high
Shining its light in this fool’s eye
“The sun is setting, the skies are falling, what’s the difference?” Gun Roswell
On my way high, high up
Ever higher
Closer to the sky
On a smooth elevator ride
Up to the 16th floor I fly
From this ocean view
Reserved for only a few
Enjoying the last rays of sun
The last of the sunsets
Of the month of October
“The days are getting shorter, sunshine a scarce commodity” Gun Roswell
The evening falls
The sun is setting
Soon it is time to crawl
Into the bedding
But before that
Taking a few snaps
Of the setting sun
“The colours still remain vivid, even if they are soon to fade” Gun Roswell
Type, type, type
Work, work, work
Finally, a break
Looking out the window
The sun beckoning
Stepping outside
Half way through the door
Something hits me
Like a lightning
It’s cold outside now
It’s after all, October
Time to put a coat on
Stepping out, first step…
But wait!
Don’t forget the camera!
Living by a body of water, certainly is on the bucket list of plenty of dwellers, but yeah, it would be totally great live there“ Gun Roswell
A house, built on top of the rocky hill, gives the onlooker chills, as it’s just by a cool looking lake, and that kind of a place, is just the best, at least during the seasons where the temperatures are warm and totally nice, the weather somewhat mild, and chilling down by the calming lake, well, there really is no better place, for spring or summer.
But, when the damp and cold October winds start, the house by the lake is starting to feel less of a place nice, with the howling winds and pouring rain, leaving a bunch of stains all over, the cold seething into the old bones… but the warming fires inside and out, keep them warm way into the darkest of nights, making the feel and looks all cozy without a fright.
And then soon enough, it is winter time, the freezing ice covering the lake, and then things don’t look as loaded with strife, as the old skates come off the hook, taking it out there on the lake, swirling around on the icy cover on a sunny but cold day, and hey, all bundled up and prepared, the house by the lake is simply great, no matter the season, so yeah, no complaints!
“They’re red, they’re delicious, just grab one and taste it!” Gun Roswell
In summertime,
In July
Something easy,
For both tummy
And the eye
Delicious
Nutricious
Precious
Sun kissed
Wouldn’t miss
Eat them
While you can
Soon, the season is over
And it will be October
When you’ll be eating
Canned spam!
“Can you really put ice in coffee?” Gun Roswell
“Coffee and ice
Go together
Like sugar and spice”
Hey, I am trying to say something nice
And keeping out of proven lies
So just act along
And we’ll be able to finish this song!
“The taste is the same, gluten or not?” Gun Roswell
Flour, sugar and spice
Add a little something nice
Blueberries crowning the top
To what else
Would you want it to swap?
Sweet and delicious
Utterly precious
Completely nutritious
In all its existence
You know you want to
Don’t try to fight
So just go ahead
And take a bite!
“The sweet taste of sugary moist dessert, a piece of cake, cream and what is it there on the top?” Gun Roswell
The odd looking construct on the top of an otherwise deliciously looking sugary treat?
Something red, albeit plain so, reminiscent more of an organ of the mouth than perhaps what it was supposed to be?
A piece of strawberry perhaps? But why cut it in to this particular format?
Anyway, if you get past the initial shock of what the heck just there on the plate dropped?
Well, it turned out to be a berry, the strawberry to be exact and the taste?
Delicious-o!
Simply try it yourself!
“There is nothing wrong with a little sugar in ones life every once in a while, now is there?” Gun Roswell
The reds, the blues and all the other hues, no matter which of them you choose, just be careful, not to any of the good parts to lose. When devouring into your hungry mouth, those cherries so plentiful without any kind of doubt. Just eat them and be proud, a little sugar of the good kind in your diet, may just keep your tummy happy and quiet.
Gluttony, some might say, and then on top of that for you pray. But just like the seasonal harvesting of hay, this is pretty much the same, as all those berries in the garden, are there for the taking and even if the neighbours are faking, saying they got the good stuff growing like weed too.
Well, maybe do them a favour and offer them some, it could be fun, to have someone owe you and then next year, who knows, maybe they will be the lucky ones with a bundle of some berries and other types as ripe as your own are this year. As there is always the fear, of drouth hitting very near affecting the harvest, getting less.
So do eat, do share, and smile as it’s only fair, with the abundance of berries will most certainly make you leer. This is the season to enjoy the fruits of the earth and maybe even a few of them stash away for the winter’s mirth?
