“I want to say something so embarrassing about September that even the leaves start blushing and turning red.” Jarod Kintz
September in Suburbia
Today,
We are past midway
For the Autumn month
Of September

“Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light”
Helen Keller
Friends of Mine
Please, be kind
Always, rewind
For these are all
Friends of mine
They were hard to find
Some, even declined
Some, were left behind
Some of them, combined
But when in a grind
I just had to remind
And here they all arrived
These, friends of mine

“If, as a chemist, I see a flower, I know all that is involved in synthesizing a flower’s elements.
And I know that even the fact that it exists is not something that is natural. It is a miracle”
— Albert Hofmann
Elements and Symbols
Undiscovered
Laying dormant
Recovered
By an informant
The symbols drawn
Onto the unknown elements
Before the early dawn
Possibly as ornaments
Signs of prediction
Part, of some ancient superstition
Colourful
But fearful
These elements and symbols
Remaining a riddle
But nothing to belittle
Possibly the initials
Of gods from the past
Carved into stone
For ages to last

Pink Flora
“Every flower is a soul blossoming in nature”
Gerard De Nerval
Simply Pink
Yes, we are pink
Yes, we are in sync
Yes, we may stink
Yes, it’s the odour of pink
No, we are not a missing link
No, us, you can not drink
No, we are not an inc
So, just let this all, slowly sink

“No water, no life.
No blue, no green”
Sylvia Earle
Green Taking Over
Green, is the front yard
Green, is the colour of the greeting card
Green, is the mind of this bard
Green, you cannot discard
Green, now also Red Rover
Green, like the four leaf clover
Green, is summer’s exposure
Green, is taking over
