Out of Summer

Summer lies scattered
as autumn gathers
its golden collage
of unfulfilled
emerald fantasies

Mid summer’s passions
cool in chill of change

Empty porch swings,
now absent of lovers
play October’s
mournful tune,

Out of summer,

Prophecy’s pages
flutter in
six o’clock sapphire,
calling for close of chapter

Though still
unwritten,

always falling
short
of an inevitable end.

Sometimes, when we look
between the leaves,
we see the mystery of a season's
change...

we need to slow down
and capture moments...

just like this....

"we need to slow down and capture moment" just like this.

Beautifully written Patricia.

already seen the leaves turning
and crisp winds blowing
summer may be on backorder
but

there's no shortage of fine poetry

I had been wondering about you. Have missed
seeing you here on the boards. Your poetry
is growing markedly in depth and just the
right touch of words and images....

Very nicely done..

Well this was worth the wait, my Dear Patricia! You and your muse work very well together!

This is a very beautiful poem!--I enjoyed the reading experience!

Sleep well, my friend!
