Cascading Colors

autumn stuff

Scintillating seasonal crafted colors astound 

Shifting shapes sharing, sensations abound

Casual collections of raised color mounds

Natures’ palette in no painting so found

 

Quietly, autumn quests her quirky quilt

A bosomed basket of beauty, broad spilt

Tinctured tidbits settling with silent sound

As Falls’ facade freely flutters all round

 

The ebb of evening nuzzles the night

Warmer climes fuel flocks farewell flight

Cloud ships send soft sun shading waves

Each of us wish to warmer enclaves

 

Winter waits patiently, that it can wade

Through autumn leaves, randomly laid

When its’ entrance has been finally made

That brings end to awesome Autumns parade

 

Reviews

[Gee]

Man, reading Margies review I think I'll get the wife to read this pre lovemaking so that I can dispense with the foreplay :)))
Very well written

HaHa
Good luck with that. If it works keep it in a bottle!
Thanks for visit

I could have been mistaken here for thinking I was reading our Margie. No wonder she nearly had an orgasm over your lines. I loved the rhythm and rhyme here. Your usual spiffing alliteration and so much colour. Thank you Dave. A great pen we have here.

Am I correct in assuming that you are either up very late or up very early
I think that is one fairly safe assuming (?)
Good to hear from you again.
I was earlier looking at your 'Unspoken' write which is a sad situation, one that becomes increasingly frequent as we move along
Would a sleeping pill help?

[Chris Shaw]

Hi Dave, I was up really early again but returned to bed and also thankfully some sleep. Yes, as we move along in life the funerals become more frequent and sadly another, as Jen has since died. Pills? I try and stay away from them. Take care.

Thank you Dave

Autumn is the hardest season to let go of, with all it's pageantry and majestic hues. I really miss the falling leaves, living here in California. Such a lovely refrain, Dave. .

..the photo makes me homesick!

[john l smith]

You are more than welcome to take a five hour flight to where we have a rake and many leaves to help with your homesickness
Just kidding of course, we can't wait to rake them ourselves
Some terrible news coming out of California, fires and shooting
Hope you are clear of all
Thanks for visit
Dave

...do not tempt me, I would love to jump in a pile of them! I am safe from the wildfires burning, and my heart is crushed by the tragedy in Thousand Oaks. I fear it will never end. Bless you for your concern! Hope the upcoming holiday is a most joyous one for you.

[john l smith]

thanks and to you

I damn near had an orgasm reading this. You gotta know how much I love rhyme, alliteration, & original word choices. This is a triple crown for me! Very few can stretch alliteration this far & still have it roll off the tongue easily. Your rhythm is bouncy & your word choices are dynamic, belying your ho-hum intro line (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

[john l smith]

Perhaps if I had written this is the minimal attire you often cook in (?) I may have done a better job on the first line
Have a great day
Dave

Both picture and poem are beautiful medicine for enlightening the heart and spirit. This is my favorite time of year.

Thanks, I agree
