Autumn

Autumn Lying in these leaves at dusk For a little while Breathing in the heady musk Autumn makes me smile. Merrily I’d formed that heap Though it was a trial Yellow, orange, hundreds deep Autumn makes me smile. Did I slip, or trip and fall Right into the pile? No, it wasn’t that at all Autumn makes me smile.

Janice, this is a good poem... the fun of playing in leaves. Good rhyme scheme, too.

I love it Janice. For me, less is more. I think people relay better to simple poetry. It makes for an easier read. This one leaves the reader smiling:)
