Autumn's Wake

Emotions fill
The air in autumn's wake...
Golden reign

Darkness shivers...
The scarlet splendour of your
Passionate laugh
Fills my heart with joy in full
View of the rising sun

Eros leads the way as
Your divine essence illuminates
My soul with glee

Fun memories
Of the great dancing moons
In Eden Hills...
Blowing the mystical horn
Of desire before the fall

The sun smiles
On the body beautiful...
Autumn chic

you are the finest poet who filled the poems with the nature. Ntaure has so much to be said again and again but each time your details brings another perspectives.I loved the last note which is too cute and peppy..

Good job my friend...you do very well..

Autumn is really special for poets and when it's related to life its more precious just like your verses..

I was thinking about you and how weird it would be to have Easter in the fall...Easter is all about birth and re-growth and spring! I guess it's all what you're used to, isn't it!

You are passionate about your love poems. They talk you on a journey and then leave you with a quiet peace.

Your work is wonderful Lawrence. King Solomon could not have done better.

Such beautiful passion to describe a long lasting love. Yes, Eros leads the way and we remember fondly those days in Eden. I've been married 26 years and still deeply love my wife. This poem touches my feelings for her. Thank you.
