Gone

Cinnamon- the scent of autumn
Candles drown- wax puddle bottom

Stormy clouds- shrouds of confinement
Tattered jeans- trendy consignment

Younger days- the color of green
Falling leaves- brush off what they mean

Windy skies- snapping of branches
Tourniquet- hemorrhage stanches

Crescent moon- gloaming afternoon
Letting go- lost grip on balloon

Shadows fade- each shade of grey blends
December- the calendar ends

This is so enchanting and thought provoking Juliet! I love the visuals and the sensory words, i.e. starting with cinnamon, along with your stunning parallelism. Congratulations on your win!
