Glorious Autumn

Autumn’s story is full of rustic shades that echo deep from every vale and hill of splendor and of forest colonnades, as one by one leaves float and spin and spill in frosted shadows and in evening’s chill Dogwoods change,in carmine escapades, to celebrate old summer’s standing still Scarlet leaves and shades of marmalades Shiraz, Claret and Burgundy distill bright tones of nature for the soul to swill. Amber, apricot and goldenrod brigades capturing our gaze and hearts to thrill Piles of forest treasures spillIng in cascades with dappled browns and caramel’s goodwill, All opulence of Autumn to fulfill Autumnal English Quintain Contest Francine Robert’s. First Place. Title for contest was Quintessential Autumn A Strand 1061 First Place Published in PS It’s Poetry Available on Amazon.

Hi Jan: Thanks for your sweet comment. I haven’t tried a Quintain before and I think a lot depends on picking the right two end rhymes to go with. I do love Autumn too so that helped a lot. Take care, SuZ
