Slip out the door
Back before the kids wake up
Grind coffee beans
Into the forest
With its soft golden glow
Breathing deeply
Bright falling leaves
Trail crunches underfoot
Poignancy of change
Fire-red leaves
Laced with frost
Sun rises slowly
Unsettled
The autumn sky
Refuses to rest
Out of the darkness
Runners materialize
As the day unveils
A rugged thread
Between lakes and travelers
Long day on the trail
Sound of nuthatches
Venus and Mars
Linger
Frosted rooftops
Rabbit with leaf-filled mouth
Scampers away
This one lap
Leaning into the wind
And nothing else
