Inspired poem by this Autumn scene

from Pixabay free.

 

 

Paint me a scene where I can ramble

cruise down river on leisurely barge,

gazing at all the mystique in wonder

where roving secrets can unfold,

 

natural beauty; powerfully visual

see myself in that complex world,

Autumn to me is genuine bohemian

cloaked, transcends all other seasons,

 

trees when naked personify great physique;

when robed I marvel at eye catching grace,

bold oranges, golds, yellows, reds and browns,

swaying to mother nature's threads of sound.

 

lost in the moment with all evident charm;

coaxed by vivid dreamlike spiritual vision,

lavishly kaleidoscopic...a moment to reflect

in Autumn's colors for all the world to see.

This is beautiful Jenny - I wonder if that 'when' in the fourth line is supposed to be there?

You are right! Autumn is Bohemian I'd never thought of that. "Lavishly kaleidoscopic" is wonderful

There always seems the bright colours (kaleidescopic, as you put it), especially on sunny days, to complement the dull skies and sogginess that also comes with autumn. The stimulation of sharp breeze and cosy clothes and warm fires to return to, and catching up with things after the outdoor times of summer, all seem part of the pleasures of autumn time.

Hi Rhiannon,

what a lovely way to describe Autumn, I really love that idea of coming home to a warm fire. Hopefully next year I'll have many trips out to talk about.

Thanks for stopping by and reading. Glad you enjoyed and many thanks for letting me know.

Jenny.
