Red as the crimson, in the trees

In a dress she wears, so grand

The ghost of autumn, unveils herself

As leaves that fall upon land

She scatters her earthly presence

Throughout the forests, serene

And leaves behind a masterpiece

No imagination has ever seen

She blends as one with nature

Tis her time to shine, it’s true

The spirit of seasons changing

She’s the colors of the world, anew

Aphrodite ~ #poetry #thedailypost

Her power of love weakened the mighty

The Goddess, a beauty was she, Aphrodite

Clothed in silken white, she gleamed

The vision of every human male’s dream

They bowed to her, these men, devoted

Hoping they would soon be noticed

And stand by her side, as her lover, no more

Immortality, is all they ever wished for

The sounds of autumn

Much like whispers in the breeze

Speak, in subtle tones

Sprinkled with Love ~ #SeptemberWriting #poetry

As daylight grows shorter
And night becomes cold
Flowers will wither away
Growing old

Rain will suddenly turn into snow
Hardening ground
Til there’s no room to grow

Perhaps a few sprinkles
From the watering can
Will perk up the flora
With love, from our hands

With a simple crumb

Nature flourishes and grows

Her beauty survives
