Shadows Cover All

Light description of nature.

Leaves whither,

Autumn shadows. 

Raindrops fall 

A Clouds veil. 

Fire leaves, 

burn like the sun. 

Whisping through the cold

Breeze. 

Winter has almost begun.

Brisk bitter air, 

Keeps jackets done up tight. 

Family moves by the fire, 

As days lose their light. 

Sun begins to set, 

Darkness slowly dawns. 

Moonlight surrounds us, 

Lost, empty. 

Shadows cover all.

Amazing use of words and thoughts.
"Sun begins to set,
Darkness slowly dawns.
Moonlight surrounds us,
Lost, empty.
Shadows cover all. "
The above lines were my favorite. You create place and perfect ending. Thank you Georgina for sharing your excellent poetry.

MMmmm!
I love it, Georgie ⁓ how you've so wonderfully, descriptively, so deeply described the vivid measure and pleasure of Nature, bringing it all to life in the depths of my core.
You are surely a brilliant poetess, a one of a kind creator of word paintings that virtually embrace the senses … I so adore how you bless us with the world your skillfully-beautiful mind and heart.
Techy stuff: L1, Hon, make it "wither", and in V4L3, I love the originality of "Darkness dawning".
You have, indeed, brought Nature to life, making Her breathe and dance upon the page, into our hearts.

For sharing your enthralling gifts, I warmly and gratefully thank you, Georgie … cozy hugs! ⁓ Richard

just like our time on this earth, the seasons, the coldness of winter...we stand or sit by that fire late in life, for as long as we can...but the sun sets...and we with it.

Sorry for the late response, i'm glad you took a message from my work :)

Hello Georgia, your poem is well written.
Most impressive thing was the use of words, it seemed to me while reading that these words were meant to be here and they could not define themselves anywhere else, which shows you have very unique skill of using words. My favorite pick would be;
Lost, empty.
Shadows cover all
in these lines one can easily understand why your word choosing ability is so impressive. Keep writing and stay blessed.

[Georgina Cross]

Hello there,
Thanks Usman for another kind review! I'll take a look now at any more work you've done :)

Very well-composed, Georgina. You have used similes, imagery, alliteration and onomatopoeia to a very good degree. A nice piece.

[Georgina Cross]

Thank you :D
I'm glad you enjoy reading my work, please continue to review and critique :D

George, You know your teacher was right, your poetry is truly different in many ways from others... You create your own poetic presence while writing.... And as I'm reading more your poems I'm getting an idea which is your work and which one is others... You have a very special ability to create vivid imageries in the readers minds without putting any extra effort ... As this poem gives me chill of cold gentle breeze... Your word choices impresses me the most, you are very selective about them....


This is a wonderful piece of poetry, it has a good flow, the subject matter is superb and very inspiring, this what we want as a reader, to get the feeling of the poem... I believe you have accomplishing it regularly.... Will always stay as a frnd and follower of your poetry Georgie.... Thank you for joining this website....

Regards
Dhiman

Thanks as always Dhiman,
Georgie :)
