Notes About The Poem

Along the Golden Avenue

gilt leaves are falling
at the last thrill of summer
life is filled with change

sunshine fills the noon
scattering leaves cars go by
on a tree lined street

brisk winds whip my hair
red cardinal is staying
for the joys of snow

a spongy carpet
on a path that goes for miles
ending in the spring

Really love the imagery in the third stanza, Evelyn: The wind whipping your hair, and the red cardinal staying on for winter snows. Glad they do, as they stand out so well and provide a much-needed splash of color in a colorless season. Nicely penned! :) gw

Exactly, Gershon. That is the reason cardinals are among my favorite birds. I am so glad you liked it. I appreciate your comment. :)
