Autumn Doubts

 

The colors of the crunchy leaves beneath my feet add warmth to the cool air biting my

 

nose and cheeks

 

Autumn leaves sashay to the ground.  I take them in, enjoy the sound of children playing

 

in piles of yellow and gold.

 

The dripping of the morning dew as they fall upon the swirling leaves;

 

Like a tear-drop from your eyes, they touch my soul in unsaid ways;

 

and only you know the reason why.

 

Your eyes are as clear as the blue sky; no clouds there

 

Yet I see those lingering doubts in your misty eyes appear. Why are they no longer

 

sunshine clear?

Brilliant! I once wrote a poem in this way. It was called the Battle of Poetry!

Lovable work! I loved the lines...
