Rustle of mists ascend ...

Hahaha, Dom Autumn is such a demanding sir, but in his demands is the sweetness of giving. Hahaha, so many aspects to the seasons and yes sex and BDSM we have read within this piece. We have such a one track mind, bad Me, bad Me. Tight work Lil X

You have a keen eye my dear I_IS_ME. I really kind of thought no one would see that aspect since some of this is quite abstract. My mind can be weird in it's expression so I was actually concerned. I like your mind, bad ME is awesome fun right? ;) Love getting a tight! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! 🍂🌧️🖤🍂

I was swpt along in the whitewater of your words...a most enjoyable ride...

I love sweeping you away in the whitewater BC! So happy it was an enjoyable ride... Such a beautiful image you conjured in my mind; absolutely love 🌊 whitewater rafting 🌊. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! 🍂🌧️🖤🍂

Naked with the night, caressed by nature's elegant touch

Beautifully said Tim. Ah to be naked in the embrace of the cool winds of Autumn under the star lit sky in the mountains... Nature caress is so beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! 🍂🌧️🖤🍂

There are 2 or 3 lines that are very nice for this reader--
The title is probably the best line, and that's why it's the title, no?

autumn under the rustle of mists ascends to the throne ...  

and this one

and no buckles restrictions, obstacles lips

the last 2 lines, so again a nice choice as the end

somewhere inside, giving rise to the madness of winds,    
somewhere inside, weaving us into a single pattern ...

All these lines work on a similar metrical scan, and give the poem an aesthetic unity--

On the level of image, a real nice one is the image that leads into the title

outside the window naked thin branches    
stretch into the sky to the frosty twinkling stars -    

Autumn is considered in some places to be the best season for star-gazing, and also for photography, for similar reasons--

Overall, I'd say the prior poem you submitted, in the "He" & "Her" and with a very stronger impression of the humid, hothouse atmosphere of the southeast, left a more potent impression of that particular environment, and tended to stand on the strength of its images, which tended to be stronger--as images--but this one succeeds for this reader more in the metrical texture of the language and range of feelings about the season.
Enjoyed!

Brilliant, I am going to steal a Poetspeak term and say I am always so happy to get a Parson's award. :) This was even a two for one, including this post and the last and contrasting which is great. Yes, that's why it's the title as far as best lines go. Wink. I do love your choice of lines, those are definitely some of the most meaningful to me. I am especially glad you pointed this one out 'and no buckles restrictions, obstacles lips'. Your analysis is always so interesting and definitely appreciated very much. I like that you found aesthetic unity; I was concerned some might not see it that way in it's entirety. I will trust your metrical scan... Autumn is definitely a great time for star-gazing where I am at and the colors are so beautiful for photography.

Humid, hothouse atmosphere indeed; another reason I love Autumn so much. I love the cool or cold weather, I suppose I was a better fit for the UK when I was growing up there but the mountains of the southeast are gorgeous and not as hot as other places in the south. I definitely agree on imagery vs metrical texture. The two are very different which I hope readers will appreciate like you did. I am so happy you enjoyed it and took the time to share such detailed thoughts with me. Thank you so much! 🍂🌧️🖤🍂

Damn Kristina
You just got some mighty fine praise from Mark.  When he gives you the seal of approval and Enjoyed, you've arrived.  I've had the joy to receive several of Mark's comments lately and I now refer to them with distinction as THE PARSONS AWARD.

That all said, you now have Poetspeak to contend with.  I'm a white collar guy or dropped out and went blue collar and ended up in Grey collar land.  Bottom line meat ( rib eye steak) and potatoes.  
I don't pretend to understand every nuance of your writing but I get what calls to me.  Our friendship goes way beyond poems and comments.  It's about a way of seeing, dignity and grace.  Your writing is eloquent, justified and just plain beautiful over and over again.  Autumn is a refreshing time of renewal and rebirth.  You came back at the right time and we are the beneficiaries of your exquisite story telling...

Bravo KristinaX  
I rarely do this anymore  
BIG LIKE
RL AWARD

WOW, I am honored to get a BIG LIKE and RL award, I know how rare those are! Deer in the headlights...  
 
Okay, I am ready - I am feisty so you better be careful; you might not be able to contend with me. ;) Grey collar, I like that and meat and potatoes, I am from the South after all. Don't worry, no one fully understands me ;p but I am so glad things call to you. You are definitely letting your softer side show, and your dignity and grace; really beautiful words. Deer in the headlights again, really I am at a loss for words. Definitely goes beyond! And I am so happy you find my writing to be beautiful over and over again. Yes, it is definitely about renewal and rebirth and messages like this really make me feel better about being back. Okay, this is where I type in circles unable to fully express my appreciation and love for everything you said. Thank you so much for your thoughts. 🍂🌧️🖤🍂

Beautiful Autumnal write, absolutely my favourite time of the year. All the colours, textures, smells just awesome time
A lovely write just awesome
Love and light
Ron x

Definitely my favorite time of year as well Ron, and one of my favorite holidays Halloween. ;) Oh the colours, textures, smells, everything is just awesome indeed. So ready to say goodbye to the heat and humidity. I am really happy you liked this one and thank you so much for your thoughts and support! 🍂🌧️🖤🍂

The howling wind is calling your name and men are going gaga over it.  Keep on writing.

Damnit Francisco, you are so funny and sweet! I love it! You have me smiling so big... 🍂🌧️🖤🍂  

Changing of the seasons from summer to fall entwined with a bondage undertone.

Time to "carve" the pumpkin.  👻

Absolutely my dear DaVinci, I am entwined with and bound by fall and loving it. ;) Oh yes! the pumpkin - I have my knife ready (yes, it's a dangerous situation)... I am so ready for Halloween! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with me! 🍂🌧️🖤🍂

Dear K,

Can’t compete with a Parsons Award or the Poetspeak BIG Like.
So I humbly offer the Honoria 🍪award.
I have a similar autumnal place of which you write. It’s energy is life saving or, at the very least renewable and its beauty is incomparable. Your poem is an autumn prayer. Lovely and soothing. H🌷

Oh rest assured the Honoria award is one of the most loved and coveted at all; everyone wants it! ;) It is definitely a time of renewal, and like you it's beauty is incomparable. I absolutely love your description of my writing. definitely captures some of my feelings; I love 'autumn prayer' and I am so happy you find it lovely and soothing. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! 🍂🌧️🖤🍂

your words anew.
totally refresh the age old love letter.
how its recipient must bush
for the flow of your words
coming as a rush.
although this season provides such change,
the words provide a freshness
expanding the mind, making it grow.
anew...your words are so...

Such a poetic response to my words is just absolutely beautiful to me. I am so happy if you felt inspired to write it and share with me. I adore the idea of an age old love letter and making someone blush with words... Expanding the mind and making it grow is such an amazing compliment. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with me!🍂🌧️🖤🍂

I love strolling through the forest of your mind and sitting there for spell to be spellbound.  I too love Autumn. It's blessed relief from the Texas heat. This is a beautiful ode to Fall...that I wait for in despiration and in puddles of perspiration for the blessed season of "autumn under the rustle of mists ascends to the throne ." This passage brings me peace, "but the soul takes sadness to other shores ..." Bravissima, lovely BD🌹

I do so love the image you conjured of strolling the forest of my mind. It's dark, scary, and cold but still... I like you there. Oh Texas heat, ouch; too much for me my dear GW. I am so happy you found it a beautiful ode to Fall... my favorite season... I love that I can bring you some peace, that settles in my heart with a beautiful Autumn cool wind and kiss. Thank you so much for your thoughts, I am so ecstatic to see you here on my page. 🍂🌧️🖤🍂

dear KristinaX

interesting the dichotomy of the 'ascend' in the title
and

heart breaks at the feet of the defeated bird,    

and ending with

giving rise to the madness


definitely a back and forth of hierarchy
that makes for fine p0eming

a warm smile
silent lotus

Nice to meet you silent_lotus, I am so happy you found the dichotomy and hierarchy effective; and were able to follow along. I love your smile. ;) Thank you so much for reading and giving me your thoughts. 🍂🌧️🖤🍂

Excellent work Kristina, you really captured the feeling and sensation of the changing seasons. I think it's my favorite time of the year, when the wind is a bit more chilly, more nostalgic for me.

That first stanza carries a tinge of sensuality (at least for me) in a natural way, it makes the heart long for endless days like these.

Hope  you're having a great season.

Ah, the changing seasons are so beautiful; it is one of my favorite times of year as well. I suppose I always run hot because I love the cold; the embrace and kiss of the cool wind. There is definitely some sensuality in this one throughout. Like making love to the season. :)

I am enjoying the change of the seasons but the situation with my Mom is still weighing on me so it's hard to get into the holiday spirit. Still I love the holidays and cannot wait for Halloween. :) Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! 🍂🌧️🖤🍂

Thanks for going way back to find this one Ted. I am so happy you enjoyed it, and reminded me of it. :) I love that you can see and feel the texture, and that it appeals to you. Of course I will check out your piece. I do love Autumn after all. Happy Holidays and New Year to you as well. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with me. 🍂🌧️🖤🍂
