Return
The choppy pewter gray lake,
is a view that causes mistakes to vacate.
Life wasn't meant to hesitate.
I seek the tall black bark elder trees.
They hold the knowledge of the free.
The foliage is vanishing fast,
the soil hungers for leaves.
Lemon and rust color
lingers to please.
The beauty of autumn paints the soul.
As winter is greedy to unleash it's cold.
Whispers of return, the barren limbs are told.

Whispers of return, the barren limbs are told.

Someday I will return. Right now I live vicariously through my friends hiking pics.
I'd love to go there with you. Thank you!

A nice, aesthetical cataclysm of season's change. You bring to life the spirit of nature, found in your wonder of forest, color, and overall feel of environment. Seeking an answer, or perhaps just general validation found in relating to life cycle, seems to take you to another place entirely, in that you do a good job in describing your feelings and emotions in transition, along with the lucidity to what you share through simile and metaphor. In other words, your potential is very captivating to behold. The description here shows both human spirit, and nature in observation, and you do well in combining the two. I know this isn't exactly your most fluent or best piece, but you do hit home with your feelings, and I have confidence in your future ability to master your poetry. I look forward to reading more form you. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for all that, it's so much appreciated. It keeps me confident, lol. I do know
how to take what I'm feeling and combine it with nature. It comes so easily to me. I'm
still waiting to sit down and write a masterpiece, in language and in meaning.
I'm under a tremendous amount of stress caring for my mom, I'm surprised I
can write at all. Thanks again for the wonderful feedback. Take care
