  Doorways

  by Kristy Gherlone

  Under the glow of a waning harvest moon, enveloped in the scent of decaying leaves, and to the din of feasting coyotes, earthly beings light fires to steel themselves against the frosty autumn air. They unwittingly open doorways to hell, allowing entrance to demons that rule October nights. On All Hallow’s Eve when Satan begs their return, they gather their captured souls and spirit them back through the entrance, slipping unnoticed through the safe passage we have created.

  Sleep tight, everyone!

  The Fire Devils

  by Kristy Gherlone

  *This is an actual photo of my outdoor fire tonight. I believe I have finally caught them in the act!

   

  Joining hands, they dance merrily in celebration of a new season’s dawning. The fire devils have arrived to rule the autumn nights and haunt my dreams while I sleep in a fitful slumber.

  Possibilities

  by Kristy Gherlone

   

   

  Autumn leaves break free and alight into the air, whirling, twisting, and laughing as they go.

  Dancing, drifting, exploring, before settling onto the dark and cresting waves.

  Tossing, churning, bubbling into the currents they go.

  Yellows, reds, and oranges on parade, sailing, surfing, dreaming.
