Wish I could March to the Larches. I suck on land nonowadays.

Larches so yellow;
Fall delights sturdy hikers.
We weak await pics!

Happy first morning of Fall! Here’s a fall poem I wrote four years ago after driving through Andover after dropping my wife off at work.

From my chapbook “Beyond the Spaghettiville Bridge”… still inexplicably available from @alienbuddhapress.bsky.social

“Hit and run” I’d been told that an oak tree leaf caught mid-spin from breaking earthward from its oak tree in fall brought the one stopping to catch it fortune. Judging how on one-thirty-three that beater smacked one Thursday, sent it staggering then sprawling, then sped off, no one told the driver.

Golden hue shining
finally recognized, seen
celebrate your glow
we adore your sheer curtain
our canopy in autumn

Happy Fall! Here’s a #sonnet I wrote and that Poppy Road Review published in 2017. There’s one little part of one line I think might be a bit clunkier than intended, but I also think it’s overall one of the best things I’ve ever written. #fallpoetry! poppyroadreview.blogspot.com/2017/02/late...
Late October Friday, Madbury Road by Matt Stefon
Poppy Road Review is a literary journal featuring free verse poems of 30 lines or less and flash fiction of 750 words or less.

It's the first day of #Autumn! Here's a favorite autumnal poem from Mary Oliver:

#poetry #autumnpoetry #fallpoetry
AUNT LEAF Needing one, I invented her — the great-great-aunt dark as hickory called Shining-Leaf, or Drifting-Cloud or The-Beauty-of-the-Night. Dear aunt, I’d call into the leaves, and she’d rise up, like an old log in a pool, and whisper in a language only the two of us knew the word that meant 𝘧𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘰𝘸, and we’d travel cheerful as birds out of the dusty town and into the trees where she would change us both into something quicker — two foxes with black feet, two snakes green as ribbons, two shimmering fish — and all day we’d travel. At day’s end she’d leave me back at my own door with the rest of my family, who were kind, but solid as wood and rarely wandered. While she, old twist of feathers and birch bark, would walk in circles wide as rain and then float back scattering the rags of twilight on fluttering moth wings; or she’d slouch from the barn like a gray opossum; or she’d hang in the milky moonlight burning like a medallion, this bone dream, this friend I had to have, this old woman made out of leaves. -- Mary Oliver

The trees are about to show us how lovely it is to let things go. 🍁 #AutumnVibes #FallPoetry
