Anselmo Boles Poet Rhyme

Autumn's Arrival

Autumn's Arrival 



      Leaves radiate vivid colors beautifying elms mesmerizing dubious eyes

      Seized out of wooden closets woolen sweaters and scarfs would suffice

      Warm breezes bade goodbye to an impending avalanche of glacial chill

      Nights endure longer as stars paint panoramic scenes in silken vermeil


      Stoking tinder in campfires country bumpkins imbibe whiskey and rum

      Driver sporting Victorian gear embark on a horse and buggy tryout run

      City dwellers undermine tourists upending stores plowing for a bargain

      Autumn awaiting raindrops summon the skies to rain upon a mountain

Marikate Kingston December 7, 2023 at 6:30 PM Oh, don't you love the fall, the breeze, colors and all? I can tell you do. I lived in Vermont for a few years between living outside New York City. Your 3rd line of your second stanza made me think of this time. My favorite line though is the last one in your 1st stanza. What a beautiful picture it would be to paint. Mmmm..dreamy.

Valsa George December 23, 2021 at 10:08 PM "Warm breezes bade goodbye to an impending avalanche of glacial chill" Autumn breeze will give way to glacial chill. The inevitable change of season is beautifully described in splendid words, Anselmo. Anselmo Boles December 24, 2021 at 12:57 PM Thank you for voicing your interpretation Valsa!...ab

Lindsay Laurie December 9, 2021 at 7:25 PM Hello Ansolmo ... autumn is certainly the transition season. Colour changing and a bounty of fruit before the dearth of winter - thanks Ansolmo - Lindsay Anselmo Boles December 10, 2021 at 10:28 AM Hi Lindsay, thanks for the visit and comment. Yes, the trees here in Florida are losing their leaves and the temperature has now chilled. Winter has arrived...anselmo

Gershon Wolf October 28, 2021 at 5:55 PM A panorama of late Fall imagery here, Anselmo, penned with the rich lexicon I have come to expect from 'The Wizard of Words!' (That's you!). Thanks, Gershon Anselmo Boles October 28, 2021 at 7:45 PM You're too kind G.W! It's truly humbling to get positive, inspiring comments from you. Shalom...ab
