Autumn Comfort
We must appreciate now
what is in our hearts,
responding to the warm glow
of camaraderie.
Today looks to be a good day for it,
nothing too grand, nor magical,
simply a few hours of quiet enjoyment,
on our beach, hidden,
cozily nestled behind
piles of crunchy sand,
feeling the change of seasons.
Just some idle conversation with friends,
perhaps turning into joyful fun,
aliveness, hope for the future.
We are cheered on by
the crisp sunlight of early fall,
hands shielding eyes against the glare,
smelling the ocean in the thin clouds,
down here, close to the border with Mexico.
