Jeanette Swan Poet Acrostic

Autumn - 2 versions

AUTUMN is...
Apples,
Umbrellas,
Trees
Un-leafing,
Moonlit
Nights.

AUTUMN is...
Apples, crisp and sweet;
Umbrellas up in the rain;
Trees turning red, gold, orange;
Untamed leaves that dance;
Marrows and pumpkins ripening;
Nests now empty – some fall...

Daisy Meadows October 3, 2025 at 11:26 AM Beautifully written! Well done! Jeanette Swan October 18, 2025 at 5:57 AM Yes. I agree, beauty is there in any season. The familiar and yet sudden surprise of the flowers gets me each Spring - they pop up for their turn, azaleas, hippeastrums, other bulbs, blossoms...and there is a native violet that creeps through the grass (and it gets windy here). Daisy Meadows October 6, 2025 at 10:59 AM Autumn is beautiful, especially the colours of the leaves. The weather has been nice today, but has been very blustery a few days ago. Do you enjoy the Spring season? Jeanette Swan October 3, 2025 at 7:21 PM Thanks Daisy, Glad you like these. Hope your Autumn is beautiful (Spring here in Aus). J :)
