Autumn leaves come tumbling down
Same as my tears
Falling to the ground
Released unfettered
They float unbound.
Soon to wither
Curl and brown
Those leaves will die
Upon the earth
As my tears too shall dry
With my renewing spring rebirth.
The tears/leaves metaphor leading to resurgence hit me. Thanks.* *
Hello poet Colleen and this is another great romance poem with a nice surprise ending. I enjoyed, Loyd
Magnificent use of your creative genius. I love how you use narrative skills to draw the readers in. Lovely poem.
I love autumn but spring has much hope - two diverse seasons. Brilliant poem and the imagery is outstanding Colleen. Thank you too for your ever supportive comments on my poems and have a great week ahead.
A great poem with two drops of tear.I wish in every one's life the tears will dry and a new beginning will step forward.thanks.......................
As I start a new semester in college and new stage of my life this poem was captivating from the start. Your used of words as a paint brush creates amazing art pieces.
Beautiful poem, so full of imagery, a well painted picture I could actually see it happening. That's what poetry is about, the emotions, the senses (see, touch, taste, smell) you brought it all out. I love it
Every time I read one of your poems I am touched by the sensitivity and loveliness of your words. I love the sadness but also the note of hope with which you end your poem.
Life and seasons are victims of a cycle, tears after smile and smile after tears and sometimes tears joy in excitement, all are parts of life. A nice write.
