Autumn Walks

by Gem   Sep 17, 2007


The air is getting cold and crisp
Time to zip up jackets and coats
Autumn walks down through the park
Watching leaves on the lake float

Beautiful colours of brown and gold
With hints of orange and reds
Swirling gently to the ground
To the paths and flower beds

The birds are gathering in the air
Getting ready to spread their wings
Heading down South to the summer
Before the winter chill sets in

Autumn walks down through the park
Tranquility and peace
Watching leaves twirl to the ground
Is a pleasant and sweet release

    "The air is getting cold and crisp

    - These two lines (as well as the 2 lines in the second stanza) are proof to me that people can pull of a good poem with a lot of 'and's' close together. Usually I can't stand that because it doesn't seem poetic. But sometimes, such as this time, people can pull it off.

    One thing I noticed wrong with the poem, or wrong to me. Was that you said 'heading down south to the summer'. While that is correct, they are heading TO summer, I find it a bit more simple to say 'for the summer'. Of course that's a phrase used quite often and you may want your own 'phrase' here.

    Good poem, Gem. You have exceptional talent.
    As I'm sure you're well aware of.

    I love nature poems, but I'm not any good at writing it. You, I must say, have a talent for them. Your description here is so well written, and the flow was well done, yet again. Well done on a great poem. :]
