Autumnal Woodland Morn

by Richard H. Fay

Bare bones
scratch leaden sky
while keening winds lament
fallen crowns lost to November's
chill touch.

(Originally published Nov. 9. 2008, in Every Day Poets.)

Poem "Who Says the Spooky Season Ends?"

Who says the spooky season ever truly ends?
Who tells phantoms to stop dragging their chains?
Who says goblins should cease playing their games?
Who tells witches to halt casting their spells?
Who says monsters must quit scaring us all?
Whoever might, tell them the haunt goes on.

A Weird Little Alliterative Nonsense Poem...

Creatures crawl out of the crud
Created by the careless crafting
Of crude and cruel concoctions.
Creeping forth from corrupted cradles,
Croaking a croupy cacophony,
Crook-backed critters catch crackpots
And crush their crap-filled craniums.

Poem "Life's Waning Season"

Proof that I can pen more than just speculative poetry...

Life's Waning Season

by Richard H. Fay

Vibrant fall gives way to drear winter
While I watch you drifting away
Bit, by bit, by precious bit.

Gone forever is spring's vivid bloom,
That promise of resplendent youth
Plucked by time's ravaging hand.

Where summer's radiance once shone bright,
Obfuscating mist now darkens 
Beclouded spirit and mind.

Lucent memories of sunny years  
Fade in the encroaching murk,
Unremembered in the void.

These final days grow bitter and dim
When ebbing warmth abandons heart
And a lifetime's dreams wither.

I mourn what was, and dread what's to come.
Lengthening shadows draw closer,
Heralding this season's end.

(Originally published in Abandoned Towers, Issue #7, November 2010.)
