Fairy Nature

THIS POETRY IS WRITTEN IN 3 HAIKU/2 TANKA FORM, AND NOTES REFER TO SENSES. I'm fairy nature, come to collect fall's leaf wares to help make a coat. A coat of sunsets, a last breath of summer's glow to wrap up autumn. I disguise myself living amongst the woodlands, squirrels, bugs, birds, bees. Slowly with magic I single handed turn the seasons over. Sweeping winds and driving rains, giving nature rest till spring. I nourish the land. Autumn's blanket becomes crisp, stark, white, purity. I contrast, redecorate new, sleek, sexy, wavy tones. AUTHOR NOTES All 5 senses are expressed within this write, looking at touch, taste, sight, sound and smell. 'make a coat','wrap up' all indicate being touched or enfolded for warmth/protection...as does winter's 'blanket' sounds - could be taken from the animals, and weather...'crisp' evokes sound also. 'rest'- evokes quieter times... smell - comes from earthy woodlands and fallen leaves, contrasted with freshness of icy or snowy air... taste - evoked from 'nourish', 'last breath' of Autumn and new breath of winter air. sight- comes from the autumn colours evoked from the 'sunset' and greens and browns of 'woodlands', 'sexy', purity of ice and snow, 'falls leaf wares' - reds, oranges, yellows and browns...
