Seasons

They are Red, Yellow, Orange

Leaves falling,

Round pumpkin fields and a cool breeze across the porch,

Smell of clean air amidst football tailgates and hot dogs amidst the cocktails in red plastic cups.

Beau is dead ,

Over cast of a morning, long faces, it’s Thanksgiving time

Working a soup kitchen enveloped in hugs but wanting to be with him.

View from above the room, I am in a pool of tears.

Empty yet full of fear.

Bright sun cascading on my face outside.

Each ray a kiss from him,

A comforting caress.

Sitting in total shock in a friends kitchen.

Colored magnets streaming crossed the refrigerator

And as I pray , are you OK?

I look at the letters, they spell “Peace. I love you”
