An ode to the autumnal season (Form: Triquain Chain)


A blending
of fervid summer days
with the first embrace of winter chill.
A time of contemplation against a backdrop
of change as nature presses ruby
lips to the leaves in a
fond farewell.


Days grow short
and as the nights lengthen,
the moon takes on a golden pigment
in celebration of harvest time. Nature smiles,
for this is a preparation, not
ending, for the fallow
times ahead.


The fertile
promises of Spring, the
nurturing of Summer, finds closure
in the Fall.  Riotous colors sway and tumble
until it is time to rest and dream
in shades of red and gold
completion.



Note:  The triquain is a poem form created by Shelley A. Cephas with several variances and can be rhyming or non rhyming. The simplest form being 7 lines with 3, 6, 9, 12, 9, 6 and 3 syllables.
