Interlude

“In the fall, I believe again in poetry...”
— Jaakko A. Ahokas

When September comes through heated breezes,
sunflowers watch droll dragonflies duet
to tunes of melodic taunts and teases
of Autumn's promise to pay Summer's debt.
A bright season greets us without regret.
Behind is buried under yesterday
and tomorrow is waiting for its say.
Joyful is this moment in Nature's arms
when time suspends until it finds its way
and ripe Autumn casts its bountiful charms.

Speaks Volumes Date: 7/28/2025 3:17:00 AM Laf this is beautiful poetry. It's such a pleasure to read something so poetically created with thought and skill, that sets the mind reeling on a journey. Icing on the cake is your wonderful way with wafting alteration, it adds sparkle to an already intriguingly pleasing poem. I dont comment much any more my friend but when I do its because I was genuinely moved.
Krishnanand Guptar Date: 7/28/2025 12:48:00 AM Heartiest congratulations on your top win Linda with a lovely poem on predicament of nature at start of the fall. The last five lines are so wonderful that I would wish to memorise them. Wishing you a joyful week.
Susan Ashley Date: 7/27/2025 8:06:00 AM Dear Linda, your poem captures the splendor of September and Autumn with brilliant imagery and rhymes. I love September and Autumn and I adore your title which animates the transition and lull between summer and fall so beautifully. I was especially struck by "Autumn's promise to pay Summer's debt" -wow! and "Behind is buried under yesterday/and tomorrow is waiting for its say" - amazing! But every line sparkles like the September sun in blue skies. Warmest wishes, my poet friend.. ~Susan
Hilda Greenhough Date: 7/26/2025 9:19:00 PM I loved this. It being July, your poem fills me with anticipation.
Sara Etgen-Baker Date: 7/24/2025 5:22:00 PM what an amazing write! The perfect interlude in poetic form. Best wishes with the contest, Sara
Gary Radice Date: 7/23/2025 11:36:00 PM That is one fascinating rhyme scheme Linda; I'm not familiar with the dizain form but you've nailed it. (ababbccdcd) I need to read up more on poetry forms. The title caught my eye because I was reminded of the 1968 film of the same name and the song: "Interlude" by Timi Yuro - perhaps my favourite song from a film of all time. I digress. Nature comes alive in your poem and the use of the title is masterful here. "Behind is buried under yesterday" speaks new beginnings. Cheers - Gary
Valsa George Date: 7/23/2025 10:26:00 PM The interlude between Summer and Autumn is so well crafted, Linda. Autumn has in its store, its bountiful charms. Live in the moment and wait for it. All the Best
