Autumn - Constanza

Colors she wowed in autumn's praise Where tinted leaves turn fiery red, Where gamboge dye prairies imbed. Meadows winsome in crimson blaze Inspired poems of heartfelt themes Strumming passions of season's dreams. Vying glimpse of her moonlit gaze Resplendent motifs whirled in dance Pleasing poise of her gifted stance. Lauding grandeur of gilded glaze Lyrics she wrote in flawless rhyme, How Connie's verses transcend time! Swaying rhythms of beauteous days Autumn's glory adorned her art: Words that blossomed poetic heart. Colors she wowed in autumn's praise~ Meadows winsome in crimson blaze, Vying glimpse of her moonlit gaze Lauding grandeur of gilded glaze Swaying rhythms of beauteous days.

Your piece brings to mind the divine thought that when we commit our lives back to our Creator - our actions as well as our words continue to glorify Him long after we have joined Him in heaven. That is the beauty of salvation. A model piece, Vijay worthy of the first place it wears. “How Connie’s verses transcend time.”

One cannot but apricate the writings of Connie and also of yours. It is a pity there are so few great poets around. Losing them is a great pity. Your poem is of course in parity with the other great ones.
