CayCay Godwin Poet Couplet

Autumn Kisses

Her time ensures Summer’s erased slate for winter.
Fall subtracts while she distracts with earth-toned glitter.

Autumn kisses summer from our skin her first day.
She flirts us into her crispy, sun-somber way.

See vibrant leaves now fall in dance curls from each tree;
though their lives now end, they face their spent happily.

Smile as children play adventure-pretend walking,
attempting no leafy crunchy sounds while prey stalking.

Watch as comes sweaters with red cheeks and hand holding
to feel details scrolling in Autumn’s unfolding.
