I Regain Autumn




Sun speaks after the first
Fall rain leaves streaks
Under a dusty tree and
I regain autumn --it
Says this to me.

  2. Yes...I love autumn too!
    Even as I type these words, the leaves are falling around me like snow flakes...here, the sun is suddenly silent though...:)

  3. Autumn is, at once, eloquent and elegant. I can't imagine a person alive for whom it doesn't have something of quiet glory to say. Beautiful verse, G.

    1. Thanks Suze. The season is a lifelong favorite --and not just because shrubs resume good behavior either.

  4. In India we were told that Sun gives us a message after rain slows down and finally stops. I guess, speaking here means giving us a message eh?
    My husband says that the photo is cool.

    1. Most kind Munir. The photo is of the trunk of our car which was parked under a tree during a rain the night before. Your husband and you honor me. Thanks!
