Okay, here is mine. I generally don't do poetry. Now you know why. :-) Hope this falls within the rules, can't say as I really understood them, or the scoring. Some nice poems here, I enjoyed them all. jon Autumn J. M. Strother Leaves change colors, then fall to ground on cool gentle breeze. Crisp bright blue skies carry hints of cooler weather, yet to come. Animals scurry through forest bracken, storing food away, Ere cruel frost settles in to stay. Autumn days grow ever shorter as the season starts to wain, Leading into cool nights of gentle dreams. Amber sunrise, washes golden through leaves To paints my walls, peeking under eaves. Offer me not the other seasons please. Yes, spring is pleasant, and favored by some, And summer's heat, I care for not at all, While winter bites in the wake of fall. Evening skies clear, after a gentle rain, quenching earth and soul, while refilling streams. Breath billows now, like smoke from dragon's lair, As I walk dampened paths without care. Autumn. Season of my inner most desires, Season of my heart, which it inspires.
