The falling autumn leaf
brushes against her cheek
the sweet musky smell
catches her by surprise
where have the flirty
floral scents gone….
lost in the colorful splendor
hidden from view a
decaying world
a time of transition
harvesting and preservation
necessities of life

The silly turned serious. I love how you've depicted that here.
ReplyDeleteLovely. Leaf smell is so wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThe falling scented leaves, a present from Ms. Autumn.

Alas the preservation will always leave that sour hint that covers the floral.
ReplyDeleteNice! Yes, fall brings its own scents and colors.
ReplyDeleteYes, the flirty carelessness has gone, but the majesty is still to come.
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful image of the scent of surprise.
ReplyDeleteSuch a different feel of a summer leaf and an autumn leaf, especially against the skin
ReplyDeleteI love the time of transition from summer to autumn. Falling leaves make me sad though but that is nature.
ReplyDeleteOh my .. the flirty floral scents are scattering with the beautiful Autumn leaves. I love your poem.
