The wind, a breeze
Filtering
Through the hazy afternoon
Carrying
The scent of autumnal bonfires.
Awake soul!
The dying embers of the summer sun
Radiate
Warming the top of your head
Soothing caress
you sigh
becoming
a part of the dancing leaves
colorful decorations
of fall.
HEY nice to see you write, this is beautiful. I love how you have the leaves dancing, I can see that, all the colors.. I love fall and dancing..

ReplyDeleteJudith, thank you for the comment. :)
Heavealie, I am glad you could feel this one, thanks for stopping by. :)
I love the way you've begun this beautiful piece - "the wind, a breeze". You clearly understand the difference between the two words, yet you allign them in the same line due to their textural similarities. Wise!
ReplyDeleteAnd, you've further justified it later on; filetered wind = breeze; undoubtedly, it awakes the soul!
I love the metaphorical first-half of this piece as it conveys how one can self-sooth oneself. Charming take!
Ah! "Dancing leaves" - that is an optimist thought!
Overall, a beautiful piece regardless of one taking it as a metaphorical piece or a straightforward one! Well done, you! Keep writing!!!
