Autumn’s Return
(Submitted in Zazzles DUP contest)
Splashes of hue begin to appear
Coloring the tops of the trees
Like upturned paint brushes
Ready to be plucked by God’s hand
Mother Nature’s life giving breath
Cools everything in sight
Pushing away the intolerable heat of summer
Her ethereal hands caress the land
Sending billowing clouds of colorful leaves
Scurrying to dance autumn’s lullaby
The evenings are cool and serene
The new moons smile down upon the dancing
Menagerie of Eden’s flower children
Fervently celebrating the changing season
Mother Nature sighs at the pleasurable sight
Tears of joy fall from her eyes
She is happy to unfold this plethora of color
In this new autumn season

This is gorgeous, xmar82, luv! :-*
You've done such an excellent job of evoking the very essence of autumn here. You make me want to gather leaves and jump in them, attend bonfires, drink apple cider, go on hayrack rides, take long walks enjoying the shifting colors and falling leaves and gradations of sunlight... :-*

Sounds like a good plan Savaja or maybe we can sit on the porch swing, with our apple cider and enjoy good conversation.

Exactly I was seeing the picture posted for the comp but I remembered Monet's "Antibes seen from the Salis Gardens" and I used that for my inspiration. Glad you enjoyed it Mourganna.

Beautiful write X Factor
I didn't see any mention of women in tight jeans, cashmere sweaters and calf high black boots. Part 2 perhaps ?

With poetry as your canvas and words as your paint, you crafted a beautiful picture. I witnessed autumn's return. Well done
