Autumn so serene.

by Steven Beesley   Oct 5, 2005


Autumn so serene:

Basking in the warm sunshine,
gone is the humid stickiness of the summer.
Cool fresh breeze now stirring the air so gently.
Rustling of the colorful leaves left upon the ground.

Air so fresh and clean.
Lazy indulgent afternoons sitting in the park.
Sunsets become evermore spectacular with each day.
Evenings now with a nip in the air.

All the trees becoming bare,
preparing for a colder time to come.
Then spring once more when all is refreshed and renewed.
Nature changing it's wardrobe so gracefully.

For me, Autumn is the best time of year,
when nature's wondrous colors and splendor are at it's best.
A wonderful cycle that repeats itself,
another year about to end.

    This is simply beautiful, I too love the autumn, and you portrayed its beauty and wonder magnificently, I felt so captured by your poem, the descriptions made me think of going to the park with my family in the autumn, with all the red leaves and the conkers falling, and the squirrels running round, really wonderful piece of writing, I hope I can write a nature piece like this one day

    I agree with you on this, Autumn is the best season for me also...

    Well done, beautiful poem
