The amber light of Autumn filters through From soft and crimson sky rising prior To kiss the umber leaves that say adieu And share morning light with my desire As saffron leaves die in brown attire I will breathe the chilled Autumn air content And know the season's change is evident As ginger colored wings of birds subdue And they fly south as a signifier When pumpkin colored skies turn midnight blue And dawns of cinnamon thread light fire The splayed morning gray will soon expire The chill of Autumn comes as leaves are spent And Winter winds begin their cold ascent 9/7/17/ contest Autumn Rhyme Royal

This is so beautiful, a gorgeous poem to read on this pre-autumn night. It brings me peace, but also an extraordinary sense of anxiety knowing where you are as you wait and are preparing for the strongest storm ever to hit your home state. My honor to read your poem, but my heart and prayers are with those of you. Please keep safe, and let us know when you can how you are. Best of Luck, Frederic and hugs to you and your family.
