Half Past Summer, Two Months Till Fall

Half past summer, two months till fall Leaves are still green, sun shining bold Flowers still bloom, and birds still call Half past summer, two months till fall Visions of Fall, dressed in her shawl Her breath swirls the leaves, turns them gold Half past summer, two months till fall Leaves are still green, sun shining bold

Congrats on the win in my contest, Joseph. I enjoyed how this pretty triolet transitioned summer into fall by using the words "still summer."

I really like the gentle, peaceful rhythm of this poem—it beautifully captures that sweet spot between summer and fall, with nature still holding onto warmth while hints of change are already in the air. Simple but so vivid!
