Autumn Ecstasy
The surface of the stream possessed
an alien green glow.
From the reflection of vanishing trees
that anticipate snow.
Water cascading over slate rock
with a natural rush of glorious sound.
The water, a liquid ecstasy
free falling unbound.
The stream was in an
encompassing bliss.
To even find beauty
in the bold leaf carcass's.

Your last line is something only a poet would think of. Nature can speak through images that hold our attention as good as an orator. I assume the words came after seeing the picture. Your interpretation is excellent. Great poem.

“Liquid ecstasy”
That made me want to be in that stream (no, not for the reason you think).
The imagery in your poetry puts me right there.
Thank you.

I really like the "feel" you put into this. The depiction brings many elements (senses) to life, that seemingly remind me of a stream in a forest somewhere far off. I like the touch of "alien green glow" - seems to capture a mystical adage. The shifting of context in the trees, reminding of winter to come, from their glimmering reflection in the water, is also pretty clever in how you choose to take transition. I love the sound of running water, as it seems to alleviate stress and anxiety, so this is right up my alley, heh. Also, the way you tied in the "life" of the leaves at the end, in their "death", is kind of ironic, and brings forth the familiar aesthetic of harvest time (at least to me.) All in all, a very imaginative, lucid, vivid poem you got going here. Thanks for sharing!

I always re-read the poem after your critique. I almost view it with brand new eyes.
I loved hearing your thoughts, thank you so much!
