Suzanne Delaney Poet Couplet

Notes About The Poem

Dialogue of Autumn

She speaks of trees in morning mist
A promise of leaves all color kissed.

Discourse in shades of russet tones
Her loss of emerald leaves bemoans

Her cadence heard in whispering leaves
With cooling winds she summer grieves

In mellow tones her course made known
She squalls till all her leaves have blown

And with her branches bare to sky
Bids to summer a fond goodbye.

Kenneth R. Merrill July 9, 2019 at 9:55 PM Rhyming couplets, cool! A rare gem in a world of free-verse, which for some reason I find challenging. I love your writing, which I can see, as opposed to an otherwise prosaic read. Kudos, Suzanne ;-) -Ken Suzanne Delaney July 9, 2019 at 10:08 PM Thanks Ken: I do like to try lots of different forms. I generally choose a form depending on the subject matter. I will send you a soupmail on what i learned regarding form. Not enough space here, Best, SuZ
