Pretty white snowflakes
drifting to the ground
let's have a snow fight

- Joyce Turner

Over the wintery forest, winds
howl in rage with no leaves to blow

- Beth Snyder

Drip, drip, drop . . . melting
snow makes leaf skirts around the
trunks of the spruce trees

- Patti Lee

Elephants like ships
in the night, slip from autumn
to winters twilight

- Barb Money

Dancing in my silks
money tossed itself
away . . .
pretty, this paper dress

- Barbara Kendall

Jagged candle-flame
the very shape
of autumn sifts
throught the shutters

- Bobby Bennett

The calling bell
Travels the curling
Mist-ways
Autumn morning

- Anne Bradley

A windblown grass
hovering min-air in vain
an autumn dragonfly

- Gail Joslyn

Pebbles shining clear
and cler
six silent fishes
deep autumn water

- Sherrie Denton
