FIRST PLACE

"Every flower speaks rapture to me swaying in the summer breeze"

Quote by_ Constance

______________________________

"Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree." Emily Bronte I wish the summer would last forever. But it is half past summer already. Some parts of my garden are decaying. But there is still beauty in those withered plants. I pause to contemplate. Yes, divine will be the colours of fall. The red, yellow, and orange leaves will be dancing. Just two months till fall, and I am dreaming of the sublime.

This is gorgeous free verse. Love how you blended shorter lines in with longer ones and the idea of the garden to express the interval between seasons. Big congrats, Constance

Our thoughts often not a straight line. We enjoy the beauty the seasons bring, and the regret of having to let go. Congrats!

I too love summer, if it is not too humid. But I love autumn best though we don't have a well marked autumn here. I have been to U.S and have witnessed the beauty of Autumn. Beautifully written, dear Constance.
