On wet days, shivering, we greet late fall, whose shortening days bring with icy fingers hoar frost on the fields at dawn. Some time before the first light snow, we take pause, and with loved ones recall - Autumn’s gift is an abundant harvest. For Brian Strand's 'COMPLETELY YOUR CHOICE (24)any form any theme' Contest

Andrea , I was reading many of your etheree poems to get an idea how it goes..and I just tried my first attempt : ). This is beautiful , It celebrates nature at its best , on the last days of fall , when harvesting is Autumn 's gift. Indeed I agree.. Lovely.
