Constance La France Poet Ghazal

Notes About The Poem

Leaves Fluttering Down

Summer fading and seeing her fate! Leaves fluttering down,
a time of the year to love and hate! Leaves fluttering down.

The trees have now removed their bright gowns in emerald hues,
and I feel sadness at the park gate! Leaves fluttering down.

I will miss all the many rainbow flowers so lovely,
and the sweet birds who will soon migrate!  Leaves fluttering down.

All too soon the park pond will be frozen over with ice,
but the good is that I can ice skate! Leaves fluttering down.

There is a beauty in the changing of each new season,
when nature has a plan to create! Leaves fluttering down. 

And though I weep the passing of my beloved Summer,
I am bliss with leaves that fascinate! Leaves fluttering down
