A Poem for Autumn

I love Autumn. But this year, it's been crushing me.

I walk through a field of flowers;

A cold autumn night.

These flowers shed luminous petals;

Reflections from the moon.

The wind is dancing around me;

Time to play.

Grasshoppers are serenating me;

Beautiful musicians.

Leaves are coming towards me in swirling gusts;

Tornado of trees.

The vibrancy of life is shown.

We're dancing in the moonlight's path.

 

Why do these glorious things

Turn black

Once the sun rises

And the day comes?

Author's Note

Are grasshoppers still out in the fall?

Very good. Autumn is my second favorite season (Winter being my first - call me crazy), and this is the second seasonal poem I've read today that I like.

Your...what's the word...is it prose? Whatever it is, it worked well. I haven't seen too many poems that flow quite like this one.

Main idea;
Description.

I kind of like it.

Good use of imagery, as well. Your vocabulary added to the ambiance of the piece.
