Autumn's Advent

The days of dying summer heat give way to Autumn’s chill. The crispness in the air is sweet; the moon too full, must spill. The refulgent Harvest moon marks shorter days, longer nights Ending the growing season before harsh, hard winter bites. Taken from ‘A Time of Harvest’ 9/26/2020 Rithimus Divisa 7 Poetry Contest Sponsored by:Gregory R Barden

This is a gorgeous write, Linda, and I think the first placement for you in a contest of mine ... all the qualities I lean to and a wonderfully substantive and descriptive write. You are in such good company, as this was a close contest and I had to cut so many good poems. Congrats to you, Dear Poet! - the bard
