After Summer

forever following after summer sunshine
the fall brings rivers of russet rumblings
as ripened leaves listen to the rain
windswept winter is secretly watching…

windswept winter is secretly watching
as ripened leaves listen to the rain
the fall brings rivers of russet rumblings
forever following after summer sunshine

Paul Callus Date: 8/21/2020 4:25:00 AM Nature's transformation from one season to another is very striking, Jeanne. Congratulations on your fine win. Regards // paul Login to Reply Jeanne Mcgee Date: 8/23/2020 2:42:00 PM Hi Paul...I love the change of seasons, with fall being my favorite for the colors and summer for the warmth, winter for starkness of beauty and spring's new growth...thank you for your comments!

Sam Kauffman Date: 8/20/2020 10:17:00 PM A great foreshadowing of the seasons to come with beautiful alliteration and assonance giving your poem an underlying melody. Just lovely Jeanne! On a personal note I guess I'm not ready to let go of summer! Congratulation on your win!
