your dose of prose: autumn

A poem a day to keep brain rot away

Join me as I attempt to create a poem a day... whether awesome, bawdy, corny, dreadful, entertaining, fabulous, gross or hilariously hokey, I will try to string together everything from couplets to limericks - just for the fun of fiddling with words!

May 3rd, 2012

Today is quite a special day. I have actually reached the one year mark. I posted my first poem on May 3^rd, 2011. I have had a great time doing this. It has basically become a habit and I don’t really want to stop. So, I am going to continue this thread because I have enjoyed it so much. It’s true that most of the poems were terrible. Some were good (or at least I thought so!) but mostly they were a reflection of something I either saw that day, thought of, felt or heard. In any case, I hope you have enjoyed the ride as much as I have. Here’s to letting the word out – come what may!

Autumnal hymn

Yellow leaves are raining down
It's that time of year again
When colours pop and nature
Does its best to out-do itself

Fall is here and the sun's still out
We're enjoying the world
The warmish, mid-autumn air
The slow turning of the year

Last days of summer

Water on the window
Droplets on the leaves
Rain spattering on gutters
And running from the eaves

A dreary, drizzly day
Fall is nearly here
Summer is retreating
And the weather is turning drear
