Umbrella of Crimson Red

Umbrella of Crimson Red

A Poem by Kelly Scheppers

Umbrella of Crimson Red

 

 

lay with me

in this cusp of autumn

beneath an umbrella of crimson red

oh, how the trees are lovely

this time of year,

vermilion leaves pirouetting down

in a whirlwind dance

scrapbooking pages

for  poets

and sages.

Hi kelly,
Very beautiful lines with nice new words.
I wish you happy holidays. Hope you will accept my wishes along with small gifts thinking coming from santa.

I love it when the maples turn to fire and burn bright orange and gold and red. And one can lay beneath the trees with a pillow of leaves for his weary head. Maybe a book for company. A lovely read, my dear friend.

Kelly - you paint a picture of a beautiful time of the year. It engages so many of the senses.
Thank you for giving this to us.
Take care - Dave.

Hello dear Kelly and you are welcome.
Oh Kelly, this is a wonderful write. Not only the imagery is intense in its colour, but I see the movement of leaves. How delicious to lay there, what an invitation.
Hope all is well in your world.
