Autumn

All had sown our talents,

Under the scorched sun of season past;

Today we dwell in harvest abundance,

Unto the autumn be the glory,

Mounts of reward,season of yield;

Now we are truly the kings.

A bountiful harvest takes time and great care to grow. If it is done right, the reward will be worth all the hard work.... This is a wonderful interpretation of the autumn season. Beautifully written, Kayode!

I thought this one was very unique; it's quite rare for me to like a poem with scant imagery, but I really liked this; elegantly well written with good flow from line to line - congrats on your win in my contest :)
