Last Curtain Call
I watch, as the landscape
is changed by the Fall
Celebrating the season
when Summertime stalls
While the winter's harsh freezing
is still months ahead,
and the Autumnal breezes
paint the trees
orange, and red.
I watch, as the landscape
is changed by the Fall
Imitating the season
of one I recall
With tempertures easing,
and the smell of baked bread,
on a cool, Autumn evening
Warm with you
in my bed.
I watched as the landscape
was changed by the Fall
Infiltrating it's colors
One last curtain call
While the winter's harsh freezing
was still months ahead,
and the Autumnal breezes
painted trees
orange, and red.

Re: Last Curtain Call
I tend to like spring and autumn but can truly live without winter. Summer is a so-so most years...
An' it harm none, do what ye will. Blessed Be.

I've always loved all the seasons,...but I wish winter was shorter now.

Re: Last Curtain Call
Hi bags,
I think your poem is great, and enjoyed reading it.
However, I don’t understand why you have used commas behind harsh, autumnal and orange.
And in the second stanza again in line 7...

Re: Last Curtain Call
Hi Sunset,...you are absolutely correct. I've edited it now. I tend to be comma happy when I write. No explanation for it I'm afraid,...just something I do. I'm reminded of a quote by Oscar Wilde " I spent the whole morning editing a poem. First I removed a comma,...then I replaced it" Thanks for the read and comments.
