Autumn leaves

Bridges, a poem by Lorraine Stark

Bridges



Invisible are the bonds that
Bind our hearts they require
No voice nor signed document
To prove it
It’s been there always from
The beginning no interpretation
Required it’s all the security
We need to cross every bridge
Together holding hands

Our love was there from the
Beginning no interpretation
Required we have all the security
We need to cross each bridge
Together, embracing time

Designs, a poem by Lorraine Stark

Designs



Mosaic patterns by leaves that fall
Brighten the parched earth from summer’s heat
A silent signal noticed by all
Crisp autumn air and apples picked sweet
Beneath moonlight the owls do call
As lovers engage their own beat
Piles of leaves and giggles can be heard
Above the mating songs of birds
