Image: Autumn at Vake Park, Tbilisi City, Georgia (here)
Did well as a transition from warm to cold
To accord succulent fruits to be harvested
With perhaps a whole turkey into the fold
Chill of winter waving, blue of sky greyish
Many resigned to less hectic of activities
Halloween invented to liven up as a wish
Perceived melancholy seemed unhealthy
Holidays ended back to school for young ones
Lively sporting season built up to a crescendo
Major league games wrapped up within the months
To be mentally prepared for 'hibernation' woes

ReplyDeleteYou obviously appreciate autumn! (My own favourite season.)
ReplyDeleteblue of sky greyish... nice!! I like when the transition happens and the season unfolds.
ReplyDeleteAs you enter the chill we leave it to come out of hibernation. The daffodils are already in full bloom
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that you were in Georgia, I had been thinking Scandinavia some place.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking it is more temperate than here, perhaps the season differences were less prominent.
Nice poem, good on Autumn season recognition.

I do appreciate autumn and am looking forward to her but I am so dreading winter.
ReplyDeleteAutumn . . . October's smoky days captured here so well.
ReplyDeleteAutumn has become one of my favorite reasons, an honor which used to be reserved for summer--before menopause made summer a sizzle torture. So, we shall appreciate autumn together.
ReplyDeleteHarvest, Halloween and (in the US) major league baseball winding down ... oh yes. The seasons have wonderful muscle memory don't they?
ReplyDeleteOh ! that's a full circle...one season weaving into another with each providing an exercise as well as memory for the other
ReplyDeleteI love "Autumn begging to be appreciated". It is my favorite season.
