Notes About The Poem

Photograph Road in the forest by Tamas Filep ( ArtoFTom ) on 500px

- Pathway Through Autumn -

Our senses are activated  
The path I walk is not untouched
A path that will never be overgrown
Golden yellow, moist aspen leaf covers the ground
The sun casts its rays between the trees
the whole landscape looks alike a painting

Attention is changing
Are you an autumn person,
you will definitely enjoy this day
A color play that makes an impression
on most people who love nature

The imagination comes alive
Can you hear, the beaver strikes with its tail in the water
The cold has left its mark on nature
Relentless death, is glowing in the wind
The longing, whispering silently through my mind
A fireplace and a blanket are a sure winner
