secrets awakened by an autumn breeze
their lullaby once a safe haven
rise up as whispers in the trees
drifting hither and yonder
morphing as amber leaves
falling to the ground
renewing cause
secrets heard
loud and
clear

Great photo. I would love to walk through autumn’s falling leaves. I am so over hot and humid. Just need some cool breezes to scatter the crabbiness away.

It won’t be long before secrets untold are awaken once again with the changing of the leaves. I can’t believe how quickly the months are clicking by, can you? Nicely done. Now, I’m ready for fall’s arrival!

Thank you, Cathy, and I am ready for fall, as well. We need a cooling period in many ways.

An excellent poem. I don’t normally appreciate Gifs, but this one really works as a companion to the poem

Thank you, Derrick! This GIF seemed pretty calm. If the movement is overly repetitive, then I feel they are too distracting.

I always wondered how well the second set of nestlings manage… As well as the 5th generation of Monarch butterflies (they are the last ones of summer and are the ones that migrate!)
