Leaf piles in which I used to jump after raking the leaves together. Interconnected all things on Earth, and leaves help life recycle, year after year.

What a delightfully expressed piece. It brought out emotions that made me feel the words you have so movingly related. The changing of seasons has always brought out different emotions. Spring and fall are my favorite. Spring because of the glory of new beginnings, and fall is a special time not only because when the tree's transform with their glorious colors and smells, but also because I am a Libra :-), lol. I thoroughly enjoyed this! ~ Jude xo
PS. And I was a leaf jumper as well :D
i really like this poem. i too hate winter but love autumn, the smell of burning wood, the bright color of leaves. i like the layout of this poem, beginning kind of dismal & dark but ending with hope, with spring coming. a beautiful write.
I love the fall and winter, the latter being my favorite. You hae wonderful writing skills. You have a soft way of expressing yourself with a strong punch of understanding. Will you be my friend??

Nature is one of my fav. topics when it comes to poetry

This poem brought back wonderful memories of when I lived on a large tract of land with my ex-husband and son. We were very rural and had to burn our trash - leaves fell into that category. It smelled so wonderful with the colors and the nip in the air surrounding us. Thanks sharing for this memory. The form or your poem is beautiful too.
beautifully said, and exceptionally well weitten Sallie, your words flow
with insight and ease, the metpahorical meaning is subtle and touching,
your words capture the moment and balance with knowledge.

Born on April Fool's Day and I'm left handed to boot. Enjoy the outdoors, feed the birds and squirrels, and really enjoy moon gazing on clear nights and even on cloudy nights I love seeing the moon m.. more..
