Adieu Autumn |

The last of the leaves shiver and swirl in the chilly breath of Autumns farewell Choppy waves splash up upon the sleeping shore of the deserted marina The docks creak and groan like the bones of old fishermen Boats still tied ~ whine in the wind The sun plays peek~a~boo behind The gray swirling clouds Leaving shards of golden streaks dancing across the water Seagulls ceremoniously circle ~ their squalls reverberating in the quiet lull Of the lakes magic as they bid adieu to the beauty of falls kaleidoscope I snuggle deeper into the warmth of my pink fur trimmed sweater Listening, looking, smelling and simply enjoying The wonder of the season before me The last crunch of leaves under my feet are music to my ears The fresh smell of earthy ground and fishy smells Are sweet fragrances to my soul In a quiet moment like this, when I have time to linger in nature~ I stand in awe I am thankful for the blessings I so take for granted ~ how funny that some can Look ~ But never see... Listen ~ But never really hear... Touch ~ But not really feel... I promise myself to never succumb to that Until next year my beloved autumn © Poet In Pink https://youtu.be/9rhr3LtSpHw |

What a fabulous tribute to dear old autumn. You took the real feelings of autumn and wrote a magnificent poem which glorifies autumn, dear old autumn. Thank you. ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |
