Autumnal

It's hard to overlook the beauty all around us in the world - unless our noses are buried in electronic devices, staking our claims and pissing on fenceposts in internet forums, Facebook, erc.

Few things are as visually breathtaking as Autumn.  

Love this. ❤📝🍁

Thank you.   ❤📝🍁

This is oh so beautiful A...truly wonderful...and yes, aesthetics of all this...time for some Tchaikovsky...Swan Lake I think. Being on the dark side I have always liked Dostoevsky's Brothers K quote...from Ivan if I remember correctly...If there is no God, then all things are permissible...whoops...there's my nihilistic mind popping out again lol.
Cheers...Harry

LOL! Thank you, Harry! Hope you enjoyed some Tchaikovsky! 🍁

there is a certain beauty in decay,
if not in ourselves at least in leaves ..

It's an eternal promise of what's to come, Paul.  
Thank you. 🍁

Gorgeous. There is so much to inspire poetry this time of year! And yes, the colorful rebellion before the decay certainly urges us to be fearless.
Lovely write!

Thank you, BT!  🍁

I love Fall rituals..

The feel of crisp, cool Autumn air.

The first time you walk outside and realize, everything around you is dying beautifully including yourself.

Lovely tribute lady.

Thank you, Losty! 🍁

elegant and beautiful. you've encapsulated the sense of autumn, my favourite season, the richest, ripest time of year, the bluest skies, the colour palette... makes me sorry for those who're all about winter (physically or metaphorically)


wintered

still waiting for the snow to start to fall
you'll miss the bluebells' haze on woodland floor
the sigh of summer breeze across the waves
and let me tell you, watcher, what is more:
you'll miss the cider-light of autumn days
their crisper air and sensual delights
their tart perfume and subtle, russet glaze—
you'll miss them, craving only winter's ice

Thanks, Jan! 🍁

Thank you for the thoughtful, beautiful words.  They ring so true.  Today was the most perfect October day here where i live. As i was driving home i thought to myself just for a brief second; perfect, it's all so perfect. Thanks for reminding me.

The weather has been so beautiful here too, BK.  Thank you. 🍁

Beautiful! And, that last line!  ♥️🕉, Rachelle

Thank you, Rachelle! 🍁 ♥️

Dear A,

What’s to critique here? Beautiful perfection! Accompanied by a gorgeous picture. Such a great time of year really.  Lovely write. H🌷

Thank you, Honoria! 🍁

Yes..........

Thank you, Tallen! 🍁

Fall is my favorite season.
Beautiful poem indeed.

Thank you, nikki! 🍁

Thank you, BB! 🍁 ♥️

I adore autumn, it's an ultimate limbo, as this feels - comfortably so despite so much discomfort. Thank you.

Thank you, Poppy! 🍁 ♥️

Yeah, that’s incredible. I tend to view autumn with shades of sadness. Kind of a post summer blues, but it has its beauty. Speaking metaphorically, I think lots of people do the same.

Thank you, Harry. 🍁

Lovely

Thank you, brodie! 🍁

Autumn brings a sense of peace.
Peace of mind.

😍👍👍👍

Thank you, Marks! 🍁

You're welcome, Ahavati.

Dear One

I had every intention to say my thoughts here
but it wants to say and be more...

I'll return  here if it doesn't pan out
as I hoped,
and say something

ordinary.

Thank you, Kathy! 🍁 ♥️

I was going to work on an extended comment to this your piece which concerns my absolute favorite season of the year.  But as time passed, the comment gave me another direction from which to express.  Thus the link I'm about to PM you that takes you to a very different comment.  In other words... your poem inspired me to be inspired by another way to tell you...

An honor for me, a gift to you if you will.

Thank you, Kathy! Inspiring poetry ( for me ) is one of life's greatest blessings! And I love Berry!

What a beautifully encapsulated picture of autumn, especially this one- although that’s simply from my peephole!😜😘

-That’s gonna be my new name, as soon as I figure out how to change it🤪

Thank you, Sarah!

While you cannot change your registered name - you can edit your displayed name in your settings. Then it will reflect  ( Warrior Princess of the Light ) in parenthesis! Good luck!

That changing of seasons is always a magical experience to me, n surely that quote is sooooo
beautiful! :)

Thank you, PoeticOne. xo

There's something romantic about autumm, it used to make me sad when I was young, but then I saw so many Autumns that it didn't any longer.  It is just a time of beauty, as in your poem, a profound thing to behold..

I think someone entering the Autumn of their life is much more understanding of the beauty of seasons, PR.  Thank you so much for a lovely comment.

That last line is amazing
The way “Autumn” is sprung on the reader and everything it alludes to. Thank you

Thank you, Shannon.
