Hint of Autumn

The heart of autumn pulses deep Through gauzy veils of morning’s mist Late summer’s lust shimmers on leaves A pilgrimage of birds ascend Summer’s blooms put her seeds to rest The heart of autumn pulses deep Bronzed flowers border the landscape Country roads fringed in goldenrod Nature’s colorful palette scheme Amber and crimson among green The heart of autumn pulses deep Trees sway in the crisp evening breeze Farmers harvest from fertile fields A bounty of earth’s offerings Days grow shorter, nights grow longer The heart of autumn pulses deep Date: August 24, 2022 For: Hint of Autumn Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Regina McIntosh Syllables verified on howmanysyllables.com Placed 10th in contest

Paula: You have captured Autumn’s tones perfectly in iambic tetrameter. I felt I was dancing with the leaves as the Goddess of Autumn. Hugs, SuZ
