One Autumn Night

We sit on the dock in the chilly autumn air Wrapped in a blanket we just sit and stare. The shores of our Lake are glowing with trees, With all their bright colors our eyes do appease. The moon seems to be on fire this night And we watch as the geese arise and take flight, Knowing we're blessed by this magical sight. Written by Brenda Meier-Hans 09.05.2014 4th

I like the imagery of the trees glowing in the lake...if the sun was shinning on them at the same time of the reflection, it would be so beautiful with the fall colors, an explosion. Thank you and congrats :)

It is a wonderful sight when the trees are changing colors in the fall, and the beauty is then doubled when they are mirrored over water.... Your words have painted a gorgeous scene here, Brenda! Nice work! Good luck in Linda's contest!

I remember this so well, and when I visit my home town, my mother laughs at me, for sitting outside in the cold , just staring at nothing, but everything, Beautifully depicted here, Brenda

Yes Jerry, there is so much to sit and watch in nature. I think that's a gift a poet has, just to be able to sit and watch and listen. What a blessing.
