Cooly and crisply , you rustle thru the trees
I anxiously await thee, Autumn Breeze!
Whip at the ground
Disturb the fallen leaves!
They dance in glee
A welcome to thee, Autumn Breeze!
Whistle at me, you tease
Billow my skirt, you flirt
I've missed thee, Autumn Breeze!
Campfires and candles shudder & weave
As restlessly, upon them you breathe
Rouse thyself, Autumn Breeze!
At the dawn of day, I love to greet thee
Thru my open window, flow in
to start the day with me
As the night graciously flees,
Refresh me , Autumn Breeze!
Your season is here, we'll celebrate with cheer
And many harvest dances and revelries
A toast! Welcome back, Autumn Breeze!
This is a splendid, image filled gem....Autumn is also my favorite time of year. I believe I have written more work with Fall references than any other season.
Good job, Denise
a most colorful poem, I love Autumn also, because it's the start of football season hehe.
"A welcome to thee, Autumn Breeze!
Whistle at me, you tease!
Billow my skirt, you flirt!" I really liked this part. peace
