Crimson Delight

Bright colors define each Fall, golden hues Spread across the canopy of trees The leaves will soon take to the sky Resembling a flock of birds on high Last memories now of passing Summer, which gave us a warm embrace We had so much fun in the summer sun But soon it will be gone without a trace Autumn blazes crimson delight, enchanting Season of pumpkins, and colors keen Dressing in ghostly costumes For trick or treats on Halloween 7-26-2021 Example For Alpha Lines Contest.

I love all the seasons Joseph and how they present us with a different view of the landscape but I must admit autumn is my favourite. Tom

Wow! Congrats! Indeed your muse with the form (alpha lines) you're introducing is commendable. Thanks for acquainting me with different poetry forms through your challenging "poetry writing exercise." Thanks likewise for my placement in your recently-judged contest. God bless you.

hmmm, I really like this but I think I need to study out your contest to see if there is a pattern to the alpha lines. It should be interesting to try!

Thanks, There is no set pattern Andrea, any alphabetical order is fine
