Seasons

 

 

 

The zephyrs sweetly scented air

colors the SPRING in my step

whispering to me on butterfly's breath

posies of poppies tickle my nose

emerald blue grass grows between my toes

 

my heart blooms in harmonious tune

to the magical brilliance of the season

 

 

Sun bleached cantatas of warming desire

heat beckons paradise whims

shade, neath a canopy tempers the fire

breathless as moments begin

hummingbird melodies, firefly sighs

vacation smiles embrace

 

crystalline beaches and tangerine skies

endless this SUMMER we trace

 

 

Sun sets soft on Golden pond

dappled colors falling

chimneys puff in early morn

November breezes calling

orange burns of browns and golds

 in auburn decorations

Summer apples baked to pies

windowsill  scent-sations

flickered hints of candlelight

the Foggy morning mist

 

whisper sounds of windblown leaves

when all are AUTUMN kissed

 

 

A majestic crunch orchestrates
a path of steel toes across
a toasted marshmallow bath
illuminated by domestic rainbows
laying out the way towards
a morphing of the road into
a land of trees decked out
in defiant green poised to write
an overture eliciting a soundtrack
of popcorn-emulating crackles

 

in a wood stove melting WINTER 
with nature's heated breath

 

 

 

The year sings its anthemed harmonics

bowed to the wiles of wind and sun,

its moods wrapped in a florescent palette

of seasonal commands - silent, instinctive,

shadows softly mysterious;

in the passing of bee-hummed sips

 

from the year's verdant well,

Nature closes its eyes - and sleeps

I acknowledge this when I got 2 read request, this is majestic and Amazing work from - Frieda P., Jack..., ShallimarRose, Kublakhan, and Emma Joy... This really made flow in tone and made it impact on reader as well.
However, I've never read poetries by Emma and Kublakhan yet. But after this masterpiece I must go and check what do they write.
This is collaboration and wonderfully worked in single piece of art here.
3 Cheers!!! for all those poets who poured their imagination in sucha magnificent way - I love the initial Stanza/Para thats by Frieda :P
2nd one i guess its by Jack and 3rd one is by Rose.. Please correct me.
You guys did it way better and I loved it.
@ Jack - this one really made an impact with your presentation on this one :)
Cheers!
