Autumn

Amplitude of seasoning--spicy colors, zesty scents,
Unrestrained passion conceals a crumbling heart;
Twilight violins in tumult bow strident cacophony,
Unmasking the harvest madness in the corn.
Maternal? Never! So unlike her sister Spring,
Nonconforming Bohemian is all Autumn plans to be.

I loved this one, and the only thing that kept it from 1st place was "unbridled passion", which came slightly too close to cliche...I loved "twilight violins", and that fourth line was intriguing, and I liked autumn as a "nonconforming bohemian" - congrats on your win in my contest :)
