Memories of swaying palms held dear Nothing compares to these Fall trees We wait with joy for colors to appear Autumn has found a home in me. Nothing compares to these Fall trees Summer’s gone - now we’ve circled round Autumn has found a home in me Her golden beauty holds me spellbound Summer’s gone - now we’ve circled round From tropical delight to temperate skyline Her golden beauty holds me spellbound Floating in midair like liquid sunshine From tropical delight to temperate skyline We wait with joy for colors to appear Floating in midair like liquid sunshine Memories of swaying palms held dear Autumn Pantoum Poetry Contest Caren Krutsinger

Thanks Sara: I was trying to think of a good line to trigger an Autumn poem and it came to me. Still thinking of your Warm Caramel and apples. SuZ
