Vroom(1) crescendo,
birds, squirrels, rabbits scatter -
        leaf-blower brigade.

(1) sound of (several) leaf-blowers. That's not quite the right word - I'll keep working on it.

Corn muffins toasted,
crumbled with maple syrup -
       breakfast for me(!) - you?

God of justice and righteousness,
God of mercy and grace -
I am more than happy for
justice to roll down like waters
and righteousness like an ever flowing stream
on some of those others I could name.
For myself I am grateful for your
mercy and loving kindness.
Somehow I don't think this is an adequate or appropriate place to remain.
Help me find a better way to be.

Sky(1) blue, leaf yellow,

pumpkin o-range, Hubbard green -

         colors of my world! 

(1) or "Lake"! 

Temps for the weekend:
High forties to low fifties -
       winter on it's way?

Grey clouds, gusty winds,
waves splashing over the road -
        two ducks on the pond.

Cloudy, thirty-four,
wind gusts twenty to thirty,
      rain - and snow!   Say what?!
