Aditi Mishra Poet Villanelle

Midway Scarlet November Corridor

Lustrous laureled leaves in autumn silently reap,
Brown bland blisters of trampled grey soil in bay,
Glorious golden glee blankets my dreams in sleep.

Withered warm whispers in wet pastures seep,
Midway merging November winds to Winter neigh,
Lustrous laureled leaves in autumn silently reap.

Thousand tattered treasures revive slumber deep,
Calm crispy corridor covers secrets on the way,
Glorious golden glee blankets my dreams in sleep

Silver sumptuous snow solaces them who weep,
Intense iridescent incarnations of life each day,
Lustrous laureled leaves in autumn silently reap.

Wonderful white wisps wake desires, oh they leap,
Emerged effervescent existence born to fly away,
Glorious golden glee blankets my dreams in sleep.

Magnificent miraculous moments I joyously keep,
Frosty ferocious fears, fervent furling hopes sleigh,
Lustrous laureled leaves in autumn silently reap,
Glorious golden glee blankets my dreams in sleep.

Mohan Chutani July 18, 2020 at 1:09 AM Aditi, what can I say. Speechless for the marvellous muses that are currently flowing from your mind, heart, & pen. Keep it up. In this very contest too, your muse places high. 'withered warm whispers in wet pastures seep' and more such lines-- what beautiful imagery of November in alliteration. Any personal occasion apart from the season in November? Keep us enthralled with more of your fine muses. Best. Mohan

John Watt June 24, 2020 at 1:47 AM I love your villanelle poem, Aditi! Lovely alliteration adds to a scenic November landscape you paint. Favorite line is "Lustrous laureled leaves in autumn silently reap". Best wishes in the contest ~ John Aditi Mishra June 24, 2020 at 9:22 AM Glad you love it John. Yes that line was the first image I had in my mind when I thought of November. Thank you for observing and appreciating it. Blessings :)

Michelle Faulkner June 22, 2020 at 10:41 PM So stirringly evocative of that golden autumn month (I was born in November so of course it is close to my heart) I think I like 'Thousand tattered treasures revive slumber deep' the best, though it is hard to pick a favorite line - should do well in the contest!
