' IN THE AUTUMN OF THE YEAR
 
  In this Autumn of the year there be image
Pictorials of th'earthtones enchantment
Flecks of shades, bleed into each spray
Scent of Summer closur' on th' causway

In this Autumn of the year there be breeze
Whisps feathering past......your ear lobes
In contrast to the gusts.....of Winter's sting
Autumn hails its thrust upon colored wings

In this Autumn of the year there be rainfall
A subtle, chilling mist.......that feeds th'soil
Preparing, for the fast confronting Harvest
Showerings fall like angel-hair........tingling

In this Autumn of the year..... there be spice
A vast potpouri.....of kaleidoscopic majesty
Herbs 'n hickory smoke...from chimney tops
Country fairs, and downtown sidewalk stops

In this Autumn of the year there be romance
Love that flowers 'n bonds with Soul n' Spirit
Spirits of October and Souls of Hallows Eve
A cornucopia of gift.....that's what autumn be

Frank James Ryan, Jr

Frank your poem is great. ''vast potpouri of kaleidoscope majesty''
is great. Your imagination fly of the pages. Hope to write, with that much
imagination and detail soon.

What a beautifull write filled with so much color and imagery.. I am not a fan of the fall, it depresses me and always has, however you bring so many beautifull colors to mind, and show the reader a new season is yet around the corner! Excelelnt...
