First Place

Outside my windowpane Daylight dwindles Sunshines sparsely Further from the new dome skies Ninety-three million miles away Imbued in ripened colors Nature’s mahogany, oak, and cherrywood trees and Jogger’s grassy paths once lime greens, Chanting to changing tones of richer reds Clustered blue-jays adorn Like shimmering rhinestones Gayly sing above our heads Shadows stretch out deep Swaying weeping willows sweep Smoke smells flow through the crisp air Musky scent from stonefire oven pits Spiced up dishes mouthwatering lit Lavish and lustrous ambers crackle Flaming orange leaves swirl around and prance Seducing all to voyeur their performance Golden crinkled copper leaves splayed Reaching, rustling to the ground Making shuffling sounds Minty blues peak through scarlet rays Fall cashmere shawls display! Autumn gardens Nights that linger lasting moments Granting lover’s time For making romance

So rich in colors, textures, feelings. But my fave is the last part, for what would all the beauty be worth without love in one's life? Awesome Anaya.

Wordplay here is so good beautiful poetess, i really love the imagery, assonant alliterations and the flow of your descriptive words, i especially loved “ shimmering rhinestones” wow! And “ minty blues peak through scarlet rays” the way you’ve used colors here is so creative and impeccable! This is definitely a fave for me, you’ve touched all my senses eloquently . Congratulations
