End of Light

Posted byJJJ Interactive BooksPosted inPoemTags:, , , , , , ,

Summer is cooling
Summer will end
End of heat
End of sweat 
Sweat the change 
Sweat the future
Future uncertain
Future will come
Come into autumn
Come to the present
Present is nice
Present is pretty
Pretty with colors
Pretty in fall
Fall to the ground
Fall to the earth
Earth reclaims life
Earth rotates time
Time to work
Time to harvest
Harvest the pears
Harvest the apples
Apples are picked
Apples are baked
Baked with cinnamon 
Baked with love
Love in the air
Love of the weather
Weather is mild
Weather is fair
Fair season stars
Fair prized pumpkins
Pumpkins for pie
Pumpkins are carved
Carved with tools
Carved into faces
Faces that laugh
Faces that play
Play outdoors
Play in the leaves
Leaves that turn red
Leaves that turn golden
Golden mums bloom
Golden sky fades
Fades away day
Fades away light
Light winking stars
Light up the night
Night
Stars

W3 Prompt #174: Wea’ve Written Weekly poet of the week, Carol Anne, prompts us to write a blitz poem on the theme of “transition from summer to fall.”
