magic of golden copper hues
peeking out of the greenery
faithfully right on time
 
we are to savour with consternation
of missing Spring but still
blessed before the cold blankets
the landscape

seasons come and go but
provides the beauty of colours
craved for
(44 words)

  1. Beautifully serene and vivid, Hank. This is excellent poetry, and your abilities always astound me, especially with how you entwine imagery in your words. It's a gift. I enjoyed reading this piece, it's a wonderful take on the prompt.

  2. To "savor with consternation" is a thought-provoking phrase. I do like this season: not summer anymore but gorgeous and not yet winter.

  8. That is exactly why I love autumn, Hank, the ‘magic of golden copper hues’, a blessing ‘before the cold blankets / the landscape’.
