My Lips Caress

Oh, goodbye sweet Summer, I will miss you, Fall, I will embrace your stained-glass colors; Invigorating crisp air and skies blue, Leaves that tumble, spin- beautiful wonders. The emerald trees lay down Summer gowns, Now they swirl in bright gold, orange and red; Delightful the twittering of bird sounds, I love Fall- sorry Summer you are dead. I snuggle in a sweater and mittens, Hug my coat closer and pull down my hat; On a park bench poems I have written, For hours, hours contemplating- I have sat. Fall leaves in my diary I will press, Oh, spirit winds of Fall- my lips caress. ____________________ September 2, 2016 Poetry/Sonnet/My Lips Caress Copyright Protected, ID 16-825-269-0 All Rights Reserved.

Probably your best so far. Would not be out of place alongside great poets of past. Your beautiful soul is in it. Glad I caught up with you. Still busy with my Mayoral campaign. Got to read My Democracy Poem Three Gifts over radio at end of interview which can be replayed on face book. Stay strong - you have lots of friends on poetry soup.
