Notes About The Poem

**I haven't experienced the actual autumn season yer, but when I do a poem which is off from my actual experience, I do research, definitely put myself in and allow my senses to work overtime so I can illustrate and write it well.. =`) 

Walking the Autumn Path

WALKING THE AUTUMN PATH Cracklings under my feet breathing fragrant leafage of reds and golds, brown twigs of trees- fallen. Juicy succulent pears, big-bright orange pumpkins fill crates in the grocery store- displayed. Fresh-baked breads, apple pies flirting sweet to my nose, I hastily run: tasting all, I burp! Cool,crisp air kissed our cheeks as we sit close outside steady gazing the evening sky: moon, stars... _______________________________________________________ CONTEST NAME: AUTUMN STROLL CINQUAIN FORM Contest Sponsor: Eve Roper ~~2nd place~~ Olive Eloisa Guillermo 5:24 pm, October 22, 2015
