Autumnal ceremony
https://youtu.be/dCBgDAu1Bkw
A bevy of invisible houris 🍁
🍁🍁🍁and imaginary fairies,
cavorted about as elfin brides
under a saffron maple tree🍁🍁🍁
Dressed in prism-hued layers
of chiffon in ethereal shimmers🍁
🍁and delicate silken gossamers
They having their group wedding in the fall
And fairy folk bustled about all around 🍁
as flimsy and flighty as they could be
while bronze leaves fell upon the brides🍁
🍁🍁🍁 in ceremonial nuptial
An autumn's ritual🍁🍁🍁
🍁🍁🍁and as nature's pretty confetti! 🍁🍁🍁
Branches denuded 🍁
🍁🍁🍁Yet autumn's august
for the wilting's ravishing!
The willowy fairies, with nylon veils
almost drowned and veiled
in henna fallen maple leaves as well
Playing hide'n' seek🍁🍁🍁
with browny brownie grooms
🍁🍁🍁also camouflaged in the heap...🍁🍁🍁
As autumn's cold khaki has warm colours...

Dear Z,
I really enjoyed the picture you paint and the story you created. It was so visually alive in my minds eye. The autumn leaves dotted among your words were a great visual effect that punctuated the poem. Lovely write. H🌷

Hi Z
I love fairies and elves. Blending them
into this poem with Autumn - quite a talent:)
Loved all the color and imagery.
Even the emoji leaves added a great flare to it.
Great write:)

I'm glad you do since most poems here seem to be about love, erotica and not nature so i hope to catch up on that too someday but until then i hope poets can enjoy nature and other topics from me. Thanks soo much for great comment,

Re: Re. Autumnal ceremony
Makes me think pumpkin pie must be an autumn dish or its colors eh. Warm thanks for seasoned comment.

Dude pumpkin and sweet potato pie are both great anytime of the year. But in the autumn it carries a different meaning, it's a connection to the earth. That warm slice from something that was cold and in the ground or lying atop it reminds of the life cycles in all things. The colors remind of the seasonal changes and it's the perfect folk food. You can be dirt poor and still have something to eat from either pumpkins or sweet potatoes, kinda like finding cassava or taro

Wow, Zayk, this is so magical and beautiful. I love this fantasy world you have created in my mind. The imagery is vivid and gorgeous. Fairies and elfin brides.... saffron maple trees. prism hues. Silken gossamers. And of course the wedding theme being something I just did one on as well. :p But yours portrays the beauty and celebration of it. The magic. Bronze leaves and brides frolicking about. Ceremony and ritual mixed with natural beauty. I absolutely love Autumn. Welcoming the cool weather. A reprieve from the summer heat. And the colours so amazing. The blending of east and west is so lovely. And the format really works so well. Thank you for inviting me over to see your writing. :) It's wonderful.

I'm super happy that you appreciated the blend of two different cultures, nature and all, it is fantasy, religious figures and nature reality all in one.
Warmest thanks for seasonal feedback , take care 🍁🌷
