Inspiration

Leaves of orange, red and gold Dance happily through the blue sky Twisting and turning through the cold Reminding me that winter is nigh Reflecting joys that have been told Before leaves all have to die Smoke drifts upward from chimney Where a wood stove thrives Warming the heart so carefree Melancholy feeling swells and strives To replace bitterness with honey October morning captures minds With gentle hopes designed To reawaken whatever spellbinds Without ever leaving behind Scents of autumn Calm the soul With emerald balsam Dreams sigh Seasons fly Inspiration The "I Do Not Know" Poetry Form Contest - Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Andrea Dietrich

REgina, this one got better and better to me as I read down to the last part. I especially loved the stanza about the emerald balsam and dreams sigh rhymed with seasons fly. An Inspirational one!! congrats in my contest.
