Notes About The Poem

Written on September 25, 2023

Summer's Leaving

Summer turned away, escaping my praise
Risking dreams from yesterday, shadows grew
Dating hope and faith, the love story knew
This is beautiful whose more than a phase

Stars glistened in the night, erasing tears
Summer turned away, escaping my praise
Winds of elation smiled through autumn’s gaze
Drifting on seas of gentle, ending fears

Seasons filled with wonders hushed suspicion
Worries brought to life by the darkest days
Summer turned away, escaping my praise
Deep peace convinces of love’s transition

Prayers remind of grace that will amaze
As Summer departs, Autumn whispers peace
Graceful glory, a season’s masterpiece
Summer turned away, escaping my praise

Valsa George September 25, 2023 at 9:11 AM The change from summer to autumn is beautifully caught. Love the whole poem especially the line- "Winds of elation smiled through autumn’s gaze". Lovely rhyming and beautiful flow.
