October

Spry scenes bid farewell to the fall.
From far, there's winter's callous call.
Dry leaves float like gold butterflies.
Thrill fills the rainbow-painted skies.

A divine calm is spread around.
In nature, there's a salsa sound.
Like wedding choirs, are the birds' cries
Thrill fills the rainbow-painted skies.

Changing moods of the scenes are seen.
Earth is graced with emerald-green
Are the sun and moon in guile guise?
Thrill fills the rainbow-painted skies.

With the blow of the breeze, reeds sway.
Are these bright clouds gathered to pray?
The moon slowly changes its size.
Thrill fills the rainbow-painted skies.

Are these swift, sassy cherubims?
What, in this weather, are their whims?
Creatures seem free of earthly ties.
Thrill fills the rainbow-painted skies

Dear Christuraj, your poetic portrayal of October is filled with amazing imagery and beauty. Stunning verse throughout, but I especially admired these, "Dry leaves float like gold butterflies" and "Are the sun and moon in guile guise?" and "Are these bright clouds gathered to pray?" - breathtaking images my friend. Congratulations for your win in Gina's contest. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
