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 8-13-2020 MIRROR MIRROR Poetry Contest Sponsored by: John lawless

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!

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!
