Ever-Changing Fall

"And all the lives we ever lived and all the lives to be are full of trees and changing leaves..." - Virginia Woolf When sun grows stingy in the sky melancholy wilts happy flowers summer’s long days will be fading away when trees announce fall’s coming in their brightest attire Gold and Crimson waltz in autumn’s cooling breezes. Pumpkins wear strange grins! Summer’s obituary by this time has been planted. when rivers and lakes solidify into ice . . . december skates in September 16, 2020 for Brian Strand's Completely Your Choice (22)Any Form AnyTheme Poetry Contest

I love the "sun grows stingy in the sky", "summer's obituary has been planted", and "December skates in", all very clever ways of expressing the changing of the season. Also the pumpkins wearing strange grins! I enjoy your seasonal writing so much, and I will enjoy seeing this as a winner ~ John

Feeling poetic today, ain't cha? Very nice indeed, Andrea. it is a sad time of the year, summer's end. Autumn cushions the blow but... i have always loved summers. They remind me of happier times. Oh well, good job. Probably a winner!

You had me at "when sun grows stingy in the sky!" Your autumn imagery just keeps cascading into December skates. A beautiful, and creative, journey with autumn to meet winter. Well done dear friend! Best of luck in the contest!
