POEM: Alice Unchained

This is my creative participation in the CPC Thematic Attic Thursday poetry challenge.  Jon and Diane have an Alice in Wonderland theme, one part of which is to write a poem based on six images from the early edition of the book.  I wrote a 7-8 beat ABAB stanza for each one, and incorporated them […]

FLOWING INTO FALL — CPC “Prelude to Fall/Apples”

FLOWING INTO FALL Long days slowly fading into dusk summer flowing into autumn once more; whispers of golden and crimson leaves easing into my days, the green of summer giving way again to the brilliance of fall.
