Some people like to exercise.
But, I’m not one of those.
I’d rather stretch out on my couch —
relaxed — in sweet repose.

October’s getting cranky.
She is fretful, chill and gray.
She’s letting dark clouds gather….
…letting summer slip away.
May your heart spill out with happiness.
May your steps be gay and light.
May you smile your way throughout your day
from the dawning till last light.
(The real Columbus Day)
“In fourteen hundred ninety-two,
Columbus sailed the ocean blue”.
Where once we paused to celebrate,
it’s now an ordinary date.
His bold adventure sailing west
put navigation to the test.
And here we are. That brave, small band
has spread by millions cross the land.
So let us pause and think about
those hearty sailors who set out —
who left their homes with hope and fear —
to find this land we’ve settled here.
Hurricanes. Tornadoes.
Floods and wind and surge and such.
This climate change that’s on us?
I don’t like it very much.
Spider webs and coal black cats.
Flying brooms and pointy hats.
Costumed kids burst on the scene.
Get ready, Folks! It’s Halloween!
Winter chill is coming.
Summer season’s past its crest.
Autumn glow spreads out among us
as the earth prepares to rest.
The morning sun pinks up the sky
and spreads its golden glow.
It shoos away the sleeping night
and wakes the earth below.
I think of you this morning.
Hope you’ll have a lovely day.
Hope that life will treat you kindly.
Hope that things will go your way.
October gold is in the sky.
Quick chill cuts through the air.
Seasons make their sudden change –
with beauty ev’rywhere.
