Autumnal - Autumnal Poetry Contest

Gorgeous sway of the leaves that fall Whirling breeze begins to call Shades of gold fills the streets below The chill in air begins to flow Blown out moist makes a clear blue sky Time for the yearning kites to fly Children gather along to play It is time for a holiday Down the streets filled with leaves of gold Lovers walk, whether young or old The chill in air calls warm embrace As flowers sway with glow and grace Daylight is short and night is long For hearts to stay where they belong Crops are ripe for a happy pick A time to feast, five days a week 3rd place
