I miss home..Ruidoso, N.M.
Europe too! I don't like the
never ending heat..
If only it didn't cost so much to move
But I bare it as I must.

It's cloudy today
No sun to be seen
The humid air lays heavy
Pressing, closing in to sufficate
The trees are still
No breeze to be felt
The dry ground looks lifeless
I should be saying 'thanks'
The sun isn't pounding down today
Killing everything in its wake
But this never ending heat
It just won't go away
Whether cloudy or sunny
It takes your breath away
But that is Texas
What do I expect

Ohh..to be on my mountain today
Feel the air cooling
Going from summer to fall
See the pines changing
Needles falling
Gentle breezes swaying the 
surrounding giants
The bears foraging
Preparing for the snows
Squirrels scamping around
Gathering their acorns
Quiet, Peaceful
And the air...
Light
Easy to breath
Not suffocating


Ohh..to be sitting with my Grandmother
In front of the fireplace
Sipping cocoa
Watching the changes going on outside
Seeing the winter coming on
that makes the summer bareable
You can hear the woods whispering
all aound you
It's seasons changing
Mother nature at work

Rhonda,

I know what you mean fall is coming late this year. I'm in New England and it's October hot and humid. The leaves are all quite green. Usually they've turned and started falling by now. Lately we've had no spring season and I guess fall will be taking a break. How boring only summer and winter and both have intensified in hot and cold. Sorry to bend your ear. Your poetry is very soothing and gentle. Outstanding visuals.
