Fall Not Fall Poem by Glen Kappy
Fall Not Fall
from "While Passing Through"/Fall
Fall—but not fall—
few leaves have dropped or yellowed—
midday is still hot—
summer flowers still bloom—
there reason to feel hurried?
Fall—but not fall….There is a superb positive message in this poem. Nicely crafted using few words. Glen, I enjoyed very much reading your poem.10+

Have courage and stand. Like flower you bloom. Gentle breeze will motivate life. An excellent poem is beautifully penned...10
as always, i appreciate you reading and commenting on my poems, kumarmani. there was a moment, reported as it is in this poem, when i realized i was pushing ahead in my thinking past the present moment, rushing, so to speak, when time at this point in my life already seems to be going so quickly. -glen
Summer lingers We still feel it warm fingers Slipping aways As autumn delays
hey, laurie! a poetic response—cool! hoping all's well with you, glen

Excellent, nature never hurries. Man is machined by the calendar, but nature is a time-bender.
of course you're right, aniruddha—there's the weather, such as it is, and the strictures we try to put on it. and then there is our impatience when the weather seems out-of-kilter with year's-formed associations. thank you for reading and commenting. -glen
