A Change of Seasons - a Hexsonnetta

Upon this break of dawn Touched by an autumn breeze There rustling in the leaves I see a hint of bronze And know it won't be long Before you strip the trees Yet knowing this I dare To dream of you again As summer starts to wane Leaves falling everywhere From mother nature's hair Ablaze in crimson flames That set a fire in me Just like those falling leaves August 21, 2015

Hi Elaine! It's been TOO long! This is a superbly constructed HEXSONNETTA, lovely cadence and word choices, '...nature's hair ablaze in crimson flames,' outstanding imagery. Well done indeed!! Best wishes, Keith
