Happy Saturday!
eye holds one teardrop
observing its universe
with its steady scrutiny

Happy Sunday!
A crow cawed with probable cause,
Far below someone’s breaking his laws,
Like sniffing a tree
Or barking with glee;
Crow thinks he is due some applause.

fallen leaves create patterns

Happy Sunday !
The snowflakes are not hard to catch,
They keep falling down, batch after batch;
They taste kind of like rain,
But I must try again
To be sure that the taste is a match.

The googly eyes let you know
This leaf’s ready to dance in a show.
He ought not to brag
But the “Maple Leaf Rag”
Is his theme song. He’ll give it a go!

defiant, not cowardly,

Jack Frost came to visit one night,
He painted our roofs and yards white,
He outlined some leaves
Downed from trees in the breeze,
To give us a cool morning sight.

In October, a pumpkin transforms
In keeping with Halloween norms,
The light from within
Is what powers him
And makes those who meet him feel warm.

It’s a secret! Hush, hush! Mum’s the word!
These mums won’t tell anything heard,
They’re trustworthy blooms
Taking tales to their tombs,
To think otherwise would be absurd!

“I’d like a few highlights on top,”
Said the tee at the Fall Beauty Shop.
Mother Nature complied
With a sunny topside,
Just some glam before all the leaves drop.

This tortoise won’t win any races,
But his owner still puts him through paces;
One thing that he knows—
He’ll never need clothes,
And he’ll never be homeless, good gracious!

They welcome with “Huzzahs!” and songs
To entertain time-traveling throngs,
Jesters, food, games, and crafters
Give excitement and laughter
At the Renaissance Fair. Come along!

A feather fell into the ground,
As if aimed by an arrow shot down.
No bullseye in sight,
Some black bird in flight
Sent a message to Earth to confound.

These tomatoes are big as your head!
(Not really, but that’s what they said,)
These savory fruits
Will be tasty in soups,
Sandwiches, salads, and spreads!

Apparently pears grow in pairs
To be healthy and not be impaired.
So juicy and sweet,
They are a fresh treat
For humans and birds, bees, and bears.

With a peek in the box that’s right here,
You’ll see Glowing Star peaches, so dear,
So juicy, so sweet,
A seasonal treat
That’s captured the sun in a sphere.
