Half Past Summer, Two Months Till Fall

                                Half past Summer, two months till Fall
                                A Monet image, relishing! 
                                Brisk sienna steppingstones sprawl
                                Half past Summer, two months till Fall                                               
                                Whiffs of earthy cinnabar loll
                                Gold aspens strewn embellishing                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              
                                Half past Summer, two months till Fall
                                A Monet image, relishing!

Ty Joe, altho you may not think the picture above is an impressionists (painter, Monet perhaps wouldn't think so) dream, I do!

Excellent, excellent, excellent and have I told you it's excellent? The Triolet is such a good time form to play with, but one must nail 'prime' words to relay image and impact as joined with repeating lines. Brevity forms are like that, yeah, they are. You did an impressive job and gifted us with a lovely poem. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

The repeating line is the element is most daunting for this poet, and can't take all of the credit for it was given as an 'may use' as you can see Andreas title. The rest I gave my best! TyVm for a kind review and a kind poetess__Anaya ;)

Your poem celebrates autumn with the imagery of burnt sienna steps and golden aspen leaves, lying strewn. The picture looks like a Monet painting (or is it truly one?) Love your entry, dear Anaya. All the Best.

Dear Anaya, I love this! I love fall! It's my favourite season even though I have started to love summer too. But I'll always love fall. Reading this poem just made my autumnal heart happy! Thank you for writing this! Best, Anne
