Autumn's beautiful changes - radiance glows carved out of the rainbow The chameleon adjusts the colors - the display is magnificent The thirst that rises from the soul long drink glass with ice cubes and fruit - autumn's honey breath Exploring multiple dimensions Beauty is meant to be appreciated in trusting kisses My queen, at her death you were a momentary ornament in gold - affection gracious Shadow of the chameleon grows In the faults of the earth the last act is shown with a soft voice that caresses your ears Every stormy night, she rests in the earth's temple

What a wonderful image, Anne-Lise! Autumn truly is a chameleon changing all the time challenging us to experience the transformation of the season and the transformation in each of our seasons! Wonderfully written with amazing images, "glass with ice cubes," "rests in earth's temple," "carved out of a rainbow!" Just a sample of your wonderful creativity and use of vibrant words and images! Hope you too have a delightful weekend! Blessings and hugs!

Dear friend, your poem is of high stature, full of innuendoes of a great poet. With stops and commas, this poem would read in a fantastic way. I always love to hear such melodious poems read by the computer. Phrases of high calibre are many. I need not repeat them. Just end by saying your poem is a rhapsody of sound. Blessings and hugs.

Dear Anne-Lise, your imagery is quite striking and palpable in this write with quite profound phraseology.. I need to say that this is definitely one of my favs from you, because the way you've described myriad emotions and that of melancholy in the end, ah, truly captivating! "carved out of the rainbow" Wow.. "autumn's honey breath", "My queen, at her death, you were a momentary ornament in gold" Sigh, that's quite poignant.. A very heartfelt write indeed, dear~ sending love!
