Searching For Calm Repose

Comes autumn with grasslands and trees lush
As mauve pallet begins to recreate 
The exuberance of a new season's joy; 
While air tangy floats on lamplight, its mirth
Enkindlina comfort as time breathes a while 
To relish life's harvest ... senses enthralled;
 When lovers. elders under moon embrace
 Slow-dance of fall ... twigs dropping their lines: 
For only autumn's flair can grant relief- 
Through hope,upon cycle's tint, stem to leaf!

Nette, Your descriptive prose lift me always into another place.. the place you giftedly compose. You offer the reader a journey to high mountains or low valleys.. but always a place of unforgettable wonder! This write, though sad, is another treat!

Blending deep melancholia with a yearning for inner comfort makes this astounding work intense yet benign in the end. You leave a distinct, personal stamp in all your poems!
