Autumn is your metaphor. you have changed along with the trees. finally shedding past memories like leaves. taking in a fresh breath with each new step towards new memories. these are the times to now charish. nicely written
Wow, an amazing poem, In autumn the reddish tinge leaves will dance in gloom to fall, The mellow fruits hail a 'Halloween' then the children will play their 'trick or treat' in the churchyard and the farmers will clean their barn to harvest those ripened fruits. I like this season the most, , But Autumn gushes the dissapointment in our heart when we see that fallen leaves. But if we kick that fallen leaves like your said, we can hope or breathe fresh air. Your poetic depiction here well penned with grace. Top marks! ! 10++++
Autumn has always been my favorite time of year. However there is a sorrow a melancholy stride that this poem achieves throughout that is full of pathos and longing for a life that never quite reached it's apex. You have outdone yourself this time Claudia, it is a very emotional and sad poem. But very, very good. I gave you a ten.
First of, it reads well. Which is good. The story is not really that which i cling to. but it is well done!
