Fall Musings

Thoughts of Fall

A soft carress stirs leaves of golden red
Swaying in the gentle sunlight
Mournful of thier loss
Yet grateful for another day
Soon they will be reunited
Together once more
The wind stirs
The leaves shudder in tense anticipation
Who will be next
Does it matter
Soon they will be as one
And life will begin again

Interesting way to handle the ideas of loss, death, and redemption. It's got a lot of the elements of a pastoral or soft feel-good piece, but the use of "loss" and "tense" make sure we know that there's something else going on here. Solid little piece of writing.

Nice imagery and mood. Perhaps I don't quite understand the concept of your poem, or maybe I'm trying to look too deep into it. I generally like this piece. Thank you for your entry into the Any and All Poetry Contest.

Lofty and light with a touch of sadness. You never cease to amaze me with your ability to paint with words.

So neat! I loved it. You didn't have to say a lot here because what you said was fantastic. I loved the idea of the leaves trembling in anticipation of the wind picking them up and joining them with other leaves. A great musing of fall's beauty in a short but sweet format.
