A chip off the ol' block "Leaves"

My son seems to have inherited my poetic gift. This is his first piece of work. It is amazing for a 15 year old boy. Enjoy!!





Leaves


The heat is gone and I wait for the cold,
The wonders of fall begin to unfold.
The leaves change colors
The fields cool wind covers
What wonders lie untold?

The leaves have dropped to the ground,
They snap and crunch all around
Although a cool breeze blows soft
The leaves float aloft
And disorder, yet glory, abound.

The leaves in the trees that have not descended
Won’t listen to reason, although recommended,
An autumn wind blew
Then the leaves, they flew
In the air they float, seemingly suspended.

Such splendor cannot be submerged in sorrow
So feel joy and submit to the days of morrow
Take true to your heart
The landscape of art
The soul of which is hallowed.

My Honey

Two glasses on a table sit,
One candle softly lit.
A glance, a smile, a loving sigh
Two joined as one until they die.

Nine years their love has grown.
More in love than they could have known.
Kids, jobs, bills, the rest
They have overcome, they have passed the test.

So to you my heart I give,
It is yours for as long as I live.
Protect it, nurture it, hold it tight...
And I will love you will all my might.

Love you honey.

Randy and I will have been married for 9 years in January...and believe me, it shocks me too. I never thought he could have handled me this long. Im a handfull....to put it nicely. He is a good guy to put up with my crap this long and STILL love me.
