Pumpkin Winds

Pumpkin winds

Your amber-umber eyes, penetrate me
as saffron sun sets on faces, ashen
Your suspicious mind raves with jealousy
as pumpkin winds chill our summers passion

Dear John, your Autumn imagery captures the chill of love's dying embers with poetic finesse. I especially admired "saffron sun sets on faces, ashen" - wow! Lots of passion packed into a bite size verse! Congratulations for your excellent win with Line. She's a discerning and accomplished poet and judge! Warmest wishes my friend.. ~Susan
