Notes About The Poem

Autumn

autumn stalls, a spent leaf falls
spirit yet graced by bliss squalls
rust red hues adorning earth
womb of life, wherefrom God calls

Seeker, you've captured the spirit of an autumn death so true, & in one of your favorites the jueju! Congratulations dear poet on POTD!

Thank you, Anaya dear. Yes, the Jueju is one of the rhyming forms I like though this one is tweaked to meet the contest requirement. I was surprised this one made it as a potd

Thank you, Sam. It is intriguing why autumn see seems beautiful to us, when what we are looking at is death, in slow motion exhalation.
