Scented Leaves

wind whistles its cutting breath 

rudely intrudes through  roof eaves
 
trees trembling at its gruff voice

scent of fallen leaves lost in fear

Chris Green Date: 11/12/2019 2:57:00 PM That's the way it has been around here the past two days, cold and gusty and making us fearful that a tree make come through the roof. Nicely expressed Eve, you captured the feeling perfectly. Login to Reply
