Autumn - Constanza To honour Connie Marcum Wong A lady graciously refined Who's sadly left the world behind. Autumn sings her annual song Russet leaves bow down in prayer In colourful seasonal flair. Sweet voiced angels singing along As harp renditions play in wait To greet her at the pearly gates. ‘Twas the season you’d loved lifelong May your place in heaven be blessed By autumn at her loveliest. Words to you alone they belong Hark as poets read verse out loud Tribute poems to you avowed. Carry our love, a love so strong As you soar to celestial shore To dwell with loved ones evermore. To honour Connie Marcum Wong Autumn sings her annual song Sweet voiced angels singing along ‘Twas the season you’d loved lifelong Words to you alone they belong Carry our love, a love so strong. 19th September 2022 *+*+* Connie May golden slumbers kiss your eyes Sleep peacefully in paradise. *+* In Remembrance of Connie -Autumn Theme Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Suzanne Delaney Written in the Constanza poetry form created by Connie Marcum Wong

Lovely poem on Connie intertwining her memories with autumn ! Indeed she loved autumn and its changing shades. Now sitting in her room in her celestial abode, she must be looking down on Earth to enjoy autumn and the leaves fluttering around, also her fellow poets reminiscing her through their lines of verse. All the Best, Belle....
