Paula Swanson Poet Acrostic

September Remembered

Scent of fall whispers on the wind
Evenings lengthen as days drift by
Pace slows down as Summer wanes
Trees, russet and gold, start their display
Embroidered sweaters hold back the gentle chill
Mornings fresh perfume embraces
Blue skies give way to wispy clouds
Earth cradles the sleeping Spring time bulbs
Rebirth of memories from Autumn's past


For the contest; 
  Fall Is Around The Corner

Carolyn Devonshire September 7, 2011 at 12:58 PM This is magical, Paula. You had me dreaming with the first line..."scent of fall whispers on the wind." Here in the South we don't get much wind unless a storm is approaching, but there is a nice seabreeze. The "gentle chill" begins in December. Magnificent description throughout. Congratulations on your first-place win. Love, Carolyn
