“When walking through the ‘valley of shadows,’ remember, a shadow is cast by a Light” Austin O’Malley
Shadow Play in October Part Two
The October sun’s shadows
Casting tall and narrow
The darkened figures
Painting abstract pictures
Onto every surface
Carefully you listen
But the only sound
Is the soft whistle
Of the Autumn leaves
Landing on the ground

Shadow Play in October Part One
The sun in zenith
Standing beneath it
My shadow casting tall
Despite feeling small
The shadows at play
On this October day
Wish I could stay
A while longer

Sunny Days in October Part One
Rain, rain, rain
And some more rain
But, wait… what?
Today, no rain?
Surprisingly sunny
To the point of funny
The air soft and warm
I could have sworn
It was late summer
But oh bummer
I wasn’t grinning
Because,
It was the beginning
Of October

SL WEEK 13: I want to ride my Bicycle
I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride my bike
I want to ride it where I like
Sometimes, even a trike
With this simple vehicle
On a ride so magical
Ever so classical
In today’s world radical
And utterly likeable
Someone said impossible
Even behaviour maniacal
Never mind the icicles
And the cynicals
I just keep on riding on
My bicycle
“I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers” L.M. Montgomery
Nightfall in Suburbia
The expectance of storm and rain
Transformed into a beautiful play
The sunset beyond the treeline
Never looked so fine
The colours painted in the sky
Catering both mind and eye
A perfect ending for the day
I wish I had more time to stay

Today
Is the final day
For the Autumn month
Of September
You were soft
You were warm
You were colourful
Your were plentiful
Did not promise much
But delivered more
And as such
I truly you adore
