Notes About The Poem

Andrea's September Sestet Contest ~ 9/20/25

September Melodies SS

September strums wistful melodies
as trees bid fond farewell to their leaves.
A chill breeze sends them tumbling down
in shades of crimson, gold and brown.
Twirling like dancers to an autumnal tune,
until upon the ground they are strewn.

Thanks, Anne-Lise. So many got first place and yet your wonderful write didn't. I'll not enter Andrea's contests again. I see friendship wins out and there are only a couple of hosts I'll write for now.

Merci, merci, Duke. I just write what comes to mind. The day I come up blank is the day I lay down my pen.
