Autumn - Constanza

Connie loved the harvest of time
She loved her days in Hawaii
Of being happy and carefree

Her seasons, like life, filled with chime
Everyday was a Thanksgiving
The land by sea everliving 

From winter to fall it's a rhyme
Paradise is the same year round
Her skip thru the beach always browned

She looked at her fall's being prime
She mused her path covered with leaf
And the trees undressed only brief

She has since passed but what a climb
Like the fall of leaves on a tree
To branch, bear fruit and then be free

Connie loved the harvest of time
Her seasons, like life, filled with chime
From winter to fall it's a rhyme
She looked at her fall's being prime
She has since passed but what a climb

Suzanne, thank you for paying your tributes and respects to Connie by sponsoring this contest and her pet poetry form. The inspiration behind the poems I see, is that it's words that are spoken from the heart moreso than anything else. As a result we are a better person today than yesterday. Bless us all.

"She has since passed but what a climb". Connie lived quite a full and interesting life, didn't she? She shared her love of nature in her poetry, as well as her love of family and her zest for life. We miss her greatly. I loved reading your tribute, Connie, and am glad we can share our memories of a dear friend. Blessings ~ John
