Oh, little flame of Autumn, never fear the winter snow
for now you’ll go to where the Fall colours forever glow
and silver moon that so adorns this blissful Autumn night,
you too will be transformed to a precious pearl of inner light
for, hotter than the hottest brand heated by mortal fire
are the passionate kisses that the Autumn can inspire;
kisses that leave their glowing mark deep, deep within the heart
and, only with a gentle, joyful sweetness ever smart.
Long as a kiss can be remembered, this day shall not die
it’s amber leaves forever blazing against my inner eye.

You keep on with this seasonal poetry John and I will hardly notice Winter..You might be just the person to keep my Winter-depression at bay. Thanks- very much ;)Pia

I hate autumn because it's a precursor to the even more hated winter. Roll on spring ... but this is really good.

I get a very tingly, happy and whistful sort of feeling in Autumn/Winter. It's the time that suits magic and fantasy; halloween spells and Christmas miracles; monsters and angels. It's so atmospheric and dramatic. Roll on October and Winter, I say and then Spring and Summer (Which I love too) Glad you enjoyed my poem. Thanks Sooz.

Oh look, a link. I wonder where it leads.

Thank you, pia. So many people associate the Autumn with melancholy but for me it's just an interesting; beautiful and romantic season. I usually associate the seasons with people and personalities and imagine what kind of person the Autumn would be; they would have to be a poet or an artist; a person with character. I suppose I like winter too and all the seasons but I have to look at them like a child. If I start seeing them through the eyes of a grumpy grown-up then the magic is gone and I start focusing on all the negatives. And I kind of think there should be more holidays because they make the Seasons more fun for people. Anyway. I'm glad if I could help a little to improve the image of Autumn. It's people who usually bring me down but Nature always warms my heart up again. Glad you enjoyed it.
