Notes About The Poem
Quatrain entry to ' What's your memory of nature? Poetry Contest

MEMORY trees

Bright bonfire-coloured leaves all aglow, 
around the corner Autumn begins its call
with an Acer Palmantum vivid show
Nature's curtain lifts only then to Fall

Ooh good luck in the contest Brian! :) lovely poem - I don't recall acers from my childhood though - I feel like I became aware of them in the 2000s
