Fairytale Beginnings

Edenic-winds release brash Autumn’s kiss — a mellifluous flutter of gold leaves. The confetti-glitter surrounds their hearts, a-shimmering around the swoon of bliss. The fall of rushing birds and gust of wings. They land on high, soft-soap — the pair surprised, as skin to skin of chilly-cheeks ascend. A bright and cheery folk a-blush — love springs. Though skies are gray — a storm prevails, yet she has clear blue eyes and his are heather-green. The lightning spoke a-twirl with hands held tight. O nature sings with all its tricks to thee. The vortex lifts — the dance of lover’s spree. Her hair awash — the silk brunette does float. The handsome beau - his breath hangs on the tow in ecstasy —they fly — so light — so free. 11/1/2018 soft-soap - flatter, persuade

Charming and whimsical, with layers of romance and hint of passion - this is exquisite, Kim, and I love the bookend rhyming ... I must fav this as well! Have you ever seen "American Beauty"? There is a clip that is just a plastic bag and some leaves that are caught in a small vortex of wind in the corner of a building - just that for minutes - and it is extraordinary, a story all its own! This reminded me ... there is such beauty EVERYwhere, but it requires eyes of wonder. This is superb!

Thank you, Greg for sharing such a lovely comment! I don’t remember the scene but sounds nice. So true that we are surrounded by beauty! I was at an art museum yesterday and had fun exploring the paintings up close, reading about them than examining them from each side and far away. Blessings to you, my friend!

Thanks, Chris. You were my inspiration for trying a romantic write and then today I saw a tree of golden leaves, leaves falling like snow. Next was a group of birds twirling likes leaves falling then landing on telephone wires so this poem :) Blessings, my friend! :) Kim
