As They Fall

basking in spring with robin songs verdant leaves in gorgeous green splendour swings in silken sarongs summer retreats in change of scene. among fleeting clouds flowers fade fluttering branches in crimson glow orange and brown in luminous shade latticework of leaves in ground below Libra and Virgo in tints of autumn fling their cloak to an eternal dwell dry leaves lulled in quietude bottom nothing stays the same, O farewell ! flock of geese migrate to unknown a spade of leaves in bonfire smoke embracing the air, no regret or moan. As they fall, from a dream they awoke.

This is a gorgeous, visually delightful changing of seasons poem Debjani. So well written, flows beautifully and great rhyming. ‘ verdant leaves in gorgeous green’/ orange and brown in luminous shade’ - you’ve captured the glory of nature so well. I loved it. Thank you for sharing. Blessings to you.
