Like a Daydream

September 29, 2025

Written by:

The leaves are shifting,
transfixing my eyes onto their grimacing faces.
I’m admiring the leaves,
the glamorous dressing they exhibit freely,
and fiercely before me.
I feel greedy having this all to myself
but grateful all the same.
Stuck in what feels like a daydream,
I can’t seem to pull away

Crimsons, golds and orange meet me
in my blissful bearing,
holding onto a moment in silence.
There are no people talking,

no couples strolling,
no crunching of feet.
There’s only silence,
placid and sweet.

Stuck in what feels like a daydream,
I don’t want to pull away.

Y’see, there’s your soul, hovering in speckles of colour like the leaves in your photos.

  Thank you.
  I fear there’s a hint of gray,
  chasing my steely blue.
  How could I love so much
  and feel so little at times.
  Who grows like a weed
  only to somehow fall behind the rose?
  Setbacks jump over the obstacles
  in front of my homage.
  I run over the hurdles and wade along
  the bumps like waves
  for only so long

I’m such a fan of the fall. Seems more peaceful. I wouldn’t want to pull away from that daydream either.
