   Fall Wintering into Spring

Multicolored clouds…
dance across the fading face
  of sunset,
as a mystic-crystal moon
rises from this lake of mirrors,
fair jewel of Autumn’s
  melancholy reverie
on such an ever-fleeting world,
where nothing stands
but Time and wilderness…
the only true ‘temples’
that suffer no hidden meaning,
when Nature speaks
with the gentle wisdom of
  a breeze,
on the final leaf that falls
or the last wildflower.

Walk with the wind
through the empty hills
  of Winter,
wrapped in the flawless peace
of pensive mist and silent snow,
for then...may we meet
on a field of dreams…
in Love and eternal Spring!

*sighs*

"Walk with the wind
through the empty hills
  of Winter,
wrapped in the flawless peace
of pensive mist and silent snow,"


I look forward to this time of year so much... as usual, I really enjoyed your write!

I haven't read a single one of your poems that I didn't like. This one is no exception.
Beautiful as always.

The idea of Wintering and Falling, Springing and Summering is a good one...

You've captured the transitions of the seasons beautifully with these images and colors.

Especially enjoyed -

"fair jewel of Autumn’s
  melancholy reverie
on such an ever-fleeting world,
where nothing stands
but Time and wilderness…
the only true ‘temples’ "
that suffer no hidden meaning,
when Nature speaks
with the gentle wisdom of
  a breeze,
on the final leaf that falls
or the last wildflower."

What a poetic write!  I can see where your inspiration led Marge.  It is inspirational enough for anyone.

a good commitee can decimate communication.

Marge is truly one who knows how to "walk with the wind" (in the very deepest poetic and philosophic sense of the phrase)!
