Autumn Evening

Autumn Evening

A Poem by Annie
"

Inspired after a long walk through the woods

"
 Tired shadows of trees
Lean long and low
Against the leaf-strewn valley.

The sun blinks bleary-eyed
And blurs the creek
Into golden smudges.

Wind combs fingers
Through oak and beech
In preparation for night.

And in one slow motion
The heavens blink
A thousand stars into being.

And in one slow motion
The heavens blink
A thousand stars into being... Loved such lines. Nice imagery!

Wow. Good to know...You are welcome...:)...............
I think you've created vivid images the reader can easily picture in their mind with this. The last verse is my favorite, it really compliments the idea well. I'm not so sure about the third verse as far as hair. I find it hard to picture that in my head as it relates to leaves. I think you did a fine job of putting into words what you saw around you for this poem though. Glad I read it.
