Six-Word Couplet Series Encore

Autumn Chilled breezes blow. Warm firesides glow. Pumpkins Orange and round Litter the ground. Skies Hold November rains. Soak gentle plains. Maple Trees Dress in vermillion. It’s autumn’s cotillion. Children Wear shiny costumes. Huge harvest moons. Turkeys Many to die. Hear them cry. 11/11/18 Six-Word Couplet Series Encore Sponsored by: Mark Toney

Janis, thank you for entering the contest, and congratulations on your first place finish! Autumn is my favorite season, and I enjoyed your couplets. But you made me sad for the turkeys :) ~Mark
