Across September's Sky

The golden leaves are glowing
Against a dome of blue.
The air is filled with sighing
From breezes passing through.
King fishers call and flickers,
While wild geese flying by
Add haunting voice as winging
Across September's sky.
We sit until the evening chill
Comes slowly creeping in,
To blow its cooling, autumn breath,
Upon our sun-tanned skin.
We watch the clouds of sunset turn
From orange to deepest red,
Then rise and hurry homeward while
September goes to bed!

Very nice early Autumn description!

I used to really enjoy Northern Autumn... assuming the chores were done, and I had sufficiently warm clothing for the chilly evenings. Maybe will get the chance to do so again someday.

This is a very nice poem . It is comforting to
me to read a poem to relate to the month and coming autumn season. It is also very descriptive, and has a pleasant feeling to the things described. Great job.

Regards,

Novus_Os

This is a beautiful poem Betty.  I love autumn too.  Yesterday was a beautiful fall day.  Today it is cloudy and threatening.  Hopefully we will have more like yesterday before September ends.  Love, Joyce

Thanks Joyce. We have had very little summer this year and it is definitely autumn now. I love this season though so I am not too unhappy!

Dear Betty Lou

The beauty of Autumn/Fall!  A lovely poem describing just that!

It is Spring here but feels more like Autumn.  Apart from only having a couple of warm days the weather here has been quite cool.

Love Verbena xo
