One Last Dance

 

One Last Dance   Leaves are notes of autumn's magic Floating graciously through time Music's movement slowly dancing But a phase in nature's rhyme Colors brighten lawns and forests Yellow, orange, red, and brown Gusts of wind with breezes' flutter Lift and swirl leaves up and down Waltz along with autumn's harvest Feel the chill and breathe in deep Change shall come to all that’s living Closing eyes for restful sleep Circle turns toward days grown shorter Life moves on like leaves from trees Beauty flows through passing seasons Saving, yet, more memories Hope was spring and joy was summer Trust is what sweet autumn brings Meant to draw us close together Warm against harsh winter's sting One last dance before it's over One last kiss beyond compare Pause, observe, and truly savor Nature's magic, autumn's flair By Sharon Miller Bolander   © 2008 Peggy Paris (All rights reserved)

Sharon, your description is pure magic within this piece of poetry, Indeed a last dance before winters chill. My fvorite lines, that say all to me. Just beautiful.

Hope was spring and joy was summer
Trust is what sweet autumn brings
Meant to draw us close together
Warm against harsh winter's sting

One last dance before it's over
One last kiss beyond compare
Pause, observe, and truly savor
Nature's magic, autumn's flair

Funny thing, it took me 10 minutes to figure out how to review other works. I'm so not good with technology :)

But more important, I thought this poem was beautiful. Excellent imigary & it really captures the essense of fall. And I love fall, so it was close to my heart.
