I thought it was about time for one of my own compositions. I'll cut to the chase. I've recently been awoken by the bold bright colours of autumn, as though I've not seen them in this light before. It inspired me. I've written some autumn prose full of colour, love and life.
Autumn Morning ยฉ Emma Day
The half naked trees
are ablaze
with fiery colour.
Sunshine yellow,
warm gold,
kissing my cheeks.
Bright Amber,
burnt orange,
cheering a smile.
Glowing tan,
hot red.
Contrast of active mind
with sleepy morning,
radiant against a cold blue sky.
Shades.
Tones.
Hues.
Covering my path
like starchy blankets,
dropped by little hands.
Crunchy under my feet,
crisp
as lively breath
cuts through frozen air.
Big eyes sparkle
like the frost,
taking in all
that is new.

Lovely words, sum up autumn beautifully. I must say it’s only in the last couple of years I’ve really appreciated autumn colours.

This is gorgeous – I had to go back to the beginning and re-read it, as I enjoyed it so much. Lots in there to love….

I especially loved these lines – conjured up great imagery for me.

I really love this poem.
Such a good reflection on the wonders of Autumn.
I think it is my favourite poem on Autumn to date.

Thankyou, that’s such a lovely thing to say! I enjoyed writing it, and I think I put a lot of different meanings and imagery into it. It sums up how I felt, the other morning when I stepped outside my door, to find leaves everywhere, the car frosted over and the sun shining. xx
Lovely poem and it sums up Autumn to a tee – looking forward to linking up to Wednesday Words next week #prose4t
The autumn hues and cold blue skies were a bit late arriving this year, but none the less lovely for that! Lovely poem. ๐
A fabulous poem. It conjures up so many beautiful images of this time of year ๐ I’m so sorry I’m so late it everything this week! Thank you for linking Wednesday Words to Prose for Thought xx
