When golden leaves fall

may each one be blessed,

they've danced in

summer breezes

but consequently

their song is

almost over,

 

as roses with

flamboyance

peeped from

between

greenery,

resolved like

undercover

agents...exposed

job done!

 

Without delay

pressed

into pages,

later to be

scattered

upon altar

as Samhain

draws near,

 

looking

forward to

long winter nights

by candlelight,

their beauty and

pleasure

is now yours

Mum And Dad.

I'm so glad you liked this poem Luigi. I always have special memories of mum and dad and it's good to look back and smile at those golden moments, which is why I so appreciate those cherries.

Thank you for reading and sharing your thoughts.

Thank you for your kind words Jean. I'm in an experimental mood at the moment, trying to write in different ways. It's certainly fun to play around with writing. Glad you liked and thank you again for letting me know.
