Fall Meadow The mornings are much cooler now With sometimes a touch of frost The sun shows it face later And sets with autumn gold’s sooner The forest path is still alive Birds, squirrels and wildlife search For food to store for winter Their lively chatter sooths the soul Stately tree boughs protect the path Invisible to all but Those who search for that most rare Love that defies this brutal world She still walks silently the path With faith in mountains magic Knowing their ancient wisdom Fills the well waiting in meadow Standing at the entrance watching The beauty of fall meadow Where the foxes still scamper Though no longer are they young kits Golden colors bathing the leaves While setting sun lights the path Nature’s sounds fill evening air The vision in the well draws her Karen Mc Neil September 27, 2012 *may our dreams ever be magical* |

Yes indeed, even down here in the swamp fall is making an appearance. While it is still quite most days, the temperatures drop pleasantly at night. This is a very descriptive piece of work you have for us today, Karen. That is your forte, the descriptions within the framework of your poetry. ~*~ If they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |

You searched outside in the wilderness and inside your soul here Karen. A fine poem of observation and perhaps more parts to come? Thank you for sharing. Goldenrose. music was my refuge.i could crawl into the spaces between the notes and curl my back to loneliness - Maya Angelou |
