Autumn II

An annual poem for my favorite season.

Summer’s curse has thus hardened my soul

To the conceptions lovely Spring had bestowed

I long for Autumn’s calm wind and idle thought

Untainted by reality and the dull of this world

 

As the leaves begin to fall

My paper heart strings are set

Doors to my lost world reopened

I am queen again

My people rejoice at my return

I am happy again

 

Winter fell,

And I finally thawed.

This poem was wonderful. I liked the imagery. Beginnings are always refreshing. A matter to the mind and to the soul. Great work! Nicely-penned. :)

Dear Aianarie,

I love autumn so I just had to read this. I loved it up until the last lines, which I just didn't understand. I feel like those lines should be somewhere in the first stanza and just end it with I am happy again. Other than that, I just loved everything about this poem. I especially loved the second stanza where autumn gives way to inspiration. Just awesome straight 100.

Cool write. Thanks for sharing.

Sincerely Victorious

God bless

Well crafted and enjoyable read!
