Oh, Autumn...you just SLAY me...

Twin Pines against
October sky -
We come in "twos",
I dunno why...
Two cats, two dogs
Two humans, We...
And Twin Pines
Cross the road from me
Mother Nature's towers of Green
On our old, wooden porch
With a cup of tea...

Twin Pines against October sky
Enough to bring a tear to eye...
Another Autumn, on the fly...
We're family now,
These trees and I.

Leaves a-crunch 'neath critters feet
Nowhere for miles a pavement street
Maisy races in a crouch...Cat face
"No, you CAN'T bring that chipmunk in the house!!!"

Hubby snorin', still in bed
Covers pulled up o'er his head...
Coyotes rampage the valley below
Herman, watchful - on patrol. Dog face

Many trees already bare
But there will still be color here
In deep, lush hues of Evergreen
Twin Pines, the loveliest
I've seen.
