Nette Onclaud Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

                  

October

When varnished leaves quake overhead
And jasmines  in their airbrushed red,
Match the whippoorwill  as it sings
Our notes flit on through elder wings--
Into duskfall  ,  an ardor's rite
Through October’s final delight:
We watch autumn cast her paints high
Till stars wane   from love's lullaby.

Robert L. Hinshaw April 11, 2019 at 5:20 PM This splendid verse will certainly rate at the top of the winner's list, nette. My kind of poetry! Glad you liked the epitaph for Cecil the Magician. Another you might like: "Here resides butcher Clyde who cheated on his wife: She was also quite adept at wielding a butcher's knife!"
