HEART OF FALL’S KALEIDOSCOPE
Poem written for and submitted to “Tanka Triptych” Poetry Contest, John Anderson, sponsor.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
air shifts, faint changes
autumn’s clockwork ticks softly
the turning of time
air rich with scent of damp earth
the ground breathes in the brilliance
swirling, dizzy leaves
kaleidoscope canopy~
autumn’s gentle reign
life thrives beyond the branches
under gaze of watchful sun
autumn in mind’s eye
thoughts of aging and decline
innate downshifting
beauty of transformation
heart of fall’s kaleidoscope
