Howard Kerr Poet Rhyme

Colours Of Autumn

Autumn weeps green cascades,
bone chilled usher omen for blazing trail of hues, 
as mint fades

 fall colours bloom, 
singed red, golden flare, plum purple,
bright plume

sharp cold,                                           
warm spells breed tints
bold

Autumn weeps  green cascades,
singed red, golden flare, plum purple,
bold

Sara Kendrick September 14, 2026 at 4:40 AM We haven't gotten there yet, Howard. Just some touches of coloring with a lot of heat and little rain but at times high moisture in the air. I enjoyed reading this one. Way to go. 👏✍️. Sara K. Howard Kerr September 14, 2026 at 4:45 AM Delighted that my minichu has brought joy to you, Sara. Comments such as yours inspire me. Warmth and light, H
