God of Harvest, Autumn Queen
Upon return, I shall greet Thee
Mother slumber, Father dream
God of Harvest, Autumn Queen
Lest I forget, chance to redeem
What will be is.What was will be.
God of Harvest, Autumn Queen
Upon return, I shall greet Thee

It reads like a chant
That might
Be said,(like a mantra)
Over and over
In fire-light
By Faes or gnomes,
Or sprites.

Reminds me of Tolkien..great write

Hey Ladybug!  That was great, you met and exceeded the challenge my friend!  This was awesome!  I am doing Fall to, just haven't had the time yet to work on anything!

Let's get together for a 'seasons' duo!
I bet we could rock the house little sister!

Littlewing,

I like this.  It's A charming salute unto the fairest of the Seasons; and couched fair in the triolet form.
A pleasure to read.

littlewing, beautiful presentation and well met...I wish I had more words to justify how I enjoyed reading this but I must admit I'm not that much of a commenting person, I feel as my words do no justice....

(smiles) Oh Sue, I just love this, sweet friend, if you sow in the spring, you will reap in the autumn they say and there is so much beauty to behold in autumn's sacred womb! (kiss on cheek) I just love the form, sweet friend, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing!



May love and light awlays shine upon you!

Love,
