shades of gray
stark, cloudy, bleak, no, not bleak, just gray
what is there to say
the water looks dark, cold and uninviting
no need to test it with my toe
by the time I walk across the snow-covered grounds
my feet and toes will no longer be cozy warm
I think I will pass, and not go near the water’s edge
that is something I can do on another day
meanwhile I will view from afar
the far away shoreline, before
I head back, following the path that I’ve taken
back to the truck.
Not really exciting, but refreshing, yes.
A winter’s day, shown in shades of gray
I found some colour to brighten the gray
I will come back another day
We are heading into a storm
for winter, this is the norm
after all this is Canada eh!
Shadows cast their imprint on the forest floor, not looking up, I wanted to read the storyline that played out on the fallen pines and organic debris that carpeted the way
autumn sun was high in the sky, so that the filtered light cast beautifully defined lines against the rusted shades of brown and grays that lay textured, the perfect foil for the images being projected for our viewing.
After the events of the last couple of days, weeks, I welcome October and all its silly fright nights that build up to the end of October. For weeks now, I’ve seen the fun and silliness that people have and enjoy when they plan their special outfits for the events that lead up to Halloween. Not just the young, the older shoppers as well.
