Amid Falling Leaves

Amid falling leaves from crimson colored trees I fall into your arms, lightly and lovingly As my heart is colored with pleasant feelings Of long awaited comfort and reassurance The leaves twirl as we dance in the motion That only this autumn time of year can bring I feel as bright as what seems like confetti Fluttering around, touching us, as I touch you In this restful understanding that only we know Heidi Sands 7/25/20 Placed 3rd in Pick a Title Vol 20 Free Verse 3 Poetry Contest.

Hello Heidi I do like Autumn but not the raking of leaves. We still rake leave in November.Because the leaves on the trees take too long to fall. Enjoy your day my friend. Hugs Darlene

Hi Darlene. Yes...I understand the raking leaves. I think I have one of the yards that gets the most and I always need help. Thank you for your comment. I hope you have a nice evening :)

The first two lines are so tenderly romantic, and then the poem improves from there! Beautifully penned, Heidi! Joy and Light, Gershon

Through your words, we can see this couple enjoying the falling leaves, Heidi. (This is my favorite season.) Like the way you describe the leaves as "confetti" falling all around them. Very nicely done! Best wishes in the contest. Hugs, Carolyn
