          Autumn Sorrows

The last November leaves dance
through cool, clear moonlight
to plaintive evening tunes
of a winnowing wind and
  the dying year,
as we recall all loves lost
and Autumn remembers
Summer’s final rose.

Nicely done Bruce in a pensive, esp. in a melancholy way.
Reflections presented in an easy open manner.

Autumn is a good time to recall our lost loves. there is something about the dying of the leaves that call out to withered loves.

Autumn does seem to be a time of remembrance. Memories play on my mind at this time of year. Your recent poems have been exceptional, Bruce.

That's a lovely rose to be remembered by.
The simple beauty in your work is breathtaking,
and I just love reading you, dreampoet.

Ah, Bruce, our leaves are long gone. The snow is stacking up, the temperatures are plummeting - and I understand the sorrow leaving summer's beauty behind.  Autmn aches with vivacious color - and opens the door for the chill that has set in.

Love your poetry, guy.
