Lost In the Autumn Air

Words tremble
Crisp winds bear burdens
Summer promised, as daylight drifts away
Your heart.... singing in choirs of fading bloom
Hears not

Hi, James, I am Hanitra from Madagascar. I just read and loved your comments on Debbie Guzzi's poem about the Worm. Very wise and encouraging thoughts. Cinquain is such a difficult form to fit deep thoughts in. But you did so well, it's a pleasure! Best wishes for the contest!:) Blessings, Hanitra
