Wooing Winter In Autumn's Song

Where gentle winds merrily blow And twilight flaunts its orange glow Swirling imprints amber arc spun Bending beams-mauve of setting sun Prairies sway in graying shadows Wailing grief of browning meadows While garden sighs of parched flowers And ardor yawns in rain showers Pine trees breeze lilting verdant hills Enchanting hearts in wintry thrills As snowflakes vie passions of night And romance glimmers in moonlight Frigid air dwells in dreams of dawn Yet, blush of morn smiles on and on Greeting bright day’s golden appeal While sunrise sparks its frosty zeal Wooing winter in autumn's song Glinting days short, as nights prolong January 25, 2022 Poem of the day January 27, 2022 Placed 1st: A strand 1061 contest Form LAY: Eight syllables per line

Your writ paints clarity of your intended points of intrigue wondrously, Vijay! I am awed of your neatly tight terseness portrayed in Lay, and of such intricacies, it'll be shameful of me naught to have this as a Fave, my friend, Aloha!

I enjoyed reading this one today. It has good flow, rhythm, and rhyme. I like the theme as well. I like the form chosen to use as well. I will have to look it up and see how to write one. I like the fact that you describe autumn "glinting days short and as nights prolong". Your visit to my page was encouraging. Sara
