Inside Autumn
wrapped in your arms,
the cracks of the fire pop throughout my ears
mixed with orange citrus,
your scent of cinnamon spice puts me in a trance
i'm in a field of oats and daisies
occasional breezes blow through my knitted sweater
restoring my silked skin
i begin to run
chestnut hair flutters and whips
smothers my blushed face
hovering clouds start to soften
drifting through the royal sky
a rocky path
collapses me to my knees
your eyes are seen again
and i'm feeling your heart start to beat again
what has faded will one day reappear
but only in my dreams
the cracks of the fire pop throughout my ears
mixed with orange citrus,
your scent of cinnamon spice puts me in a trance
i'm in a field of oats and daisies
occasional breezes blow through my knitted sweater
restoring my silked skin
i begin to run
chestnut hair flutters and whips
smothers my blushed face
hovering clouds start to soften
drifting through the royal sky
a rocky path
collapses me to my knees
your eyes are seen again
and i'm feeling your heart start to beat again
what has faded will one day reappear
but only in my dreams

Dear C,
I’d love to see this poem painted also. Ij the meantime, you’ve expressed the scene so vividly with words the minds eye of the reader will have no problem “seeing” this poem come to life. Closing stanza pulls everything together beautifully. Great write. H🌷

That's quite a beautiful vision in that very vivid dream.
The painting is sure to look beautiful with cinnamon scent.
You know artists should do that to their paintings; sprinkle or mix their paints with fragrance to awaken the observer's senses.
