Post 201: Green Leaves.

Autumn sadness fills the air

Showers of rain with deep despair

Fallen leaves are orange and gold

Reminding me I’m getting old

On days like this I stop and think

Of winters left time gone too quick

With words unsaid the autumn grieves

Awaiting spring and new green leaves

  • What a beautifully reflective piece, Mr U. Fallen leaf The imagery of autumn mourning its own fading colours is so poignant, it captures that quiet melancholy that comes with watching another season pass. Your final line, “Awaiting spring and new green leaves,” holds such gentle hope amidst the sadness. A lovely reminder that even in decline, renewal is waiting just beyond the chill of winter. Herb
