Autumn Sketch

by Jessica   Jun 18, 2006


I sit back and close my eyes
The sweet aroma of pine
Floats with the breeze
Around my face

I take a deep breathe
Open my hazel eyes
And take in the beauty

The golden leaves
Flutter in the gentle wind
Gracefully falling from
The thick branches

The flowers
Just starting
To say goodbye
Close up and get ready
For another
Long, peaceful sleep

And as I gaze
At the picture in front of me
My hands start to move
Across the paper

Capturing every detail
Every uniqueness..
The beauty before me
Appearing slowly on my lovely picture..

It hangs on the pale wall
Of my warm home
For everyone to see
To forever be entranced by
My autumn sketch..

    "The golden leaves
    Flutter in the gentle wind
    Gracefully falling from
    The thick branches"

    My favorite stanza. I loved this poem. Makes me wish it was fall even more now. Great job.

    Hey! Great poem. Only, I dont think saying "Every Uniqueness" is proper english...try something like "All the uniqueness" or something. Just didnt think it sounded right. Other than that, great poem! xoxox
