nature poetry
An ode to Mother Nature; poems that take their inspiration from the great outdoors.
October's Grove. Top Story - September 2026.
Wandering through a vast blooming meadow Heat permeates my mind and dampens my skin When the sun starts to wane on the flowers of summer When light falls through branches in A lacy pattern of shadows I press on through the treeline, to find my long-lost kin

October Is Out of the Way
October challenge: Prompt - Write a poem that makes October feel like a place you can enter. Imagine October isn't a month. It's somewhere you can go. What does it look like when you get there? Maybe the streets are covered in wet leaves and porch lights glow before dinner. Maybe there's a bonfire somewhere in the distance, a house you shouldn't knock on, or a path through the woods that wasn't there in September. Your October might be cozy, eerie, nostalgic, lonely, strange, or something else entirely. Write a poem that turns October into a place and invites the reader inside. Give it weather. Give it sounds. Give it somewhere to wander. Then see where October takes you.

Birds and Worms
Birds and Worms A little bird flew down from the sky, Mama had told him, go find food, now fly. He landed on soil that was shimmering with oil, Where worms popped up from the grass and the soil. He picked up a few and said, hmm, they’ll pass, Then flew back to Mama with his dinner from the grass.
