About This Poem

In Silence

......And so it was that Autumn would die with a gust of wind she said goodbye Of love mortal she sits subdued sipping remnants of death imbued With curtains drawn she lay in rest in silent prose she relived each breath of life abandoned of weary roads where Winter's freeze would glisten alone ......And so it was that Autumn had gone in the lonely grips of winter without a song......

    this is so poetic. It's one of the better ones I have read in this contest. I really enjoyed how you did it, and how you used winter and autumn as symbolism. Lovely!

    Very, very nice the way you gave female personification to autumn, Rick. It is a time of year when things seem to be dying. When spring follows winter, the landscape will be filled with flowers and leafy trees again. Love, Carolyn

    Very touching - 'the lonely grips of winter' sums up all the sadness. Good luck with this poem.
