Only fools believe
When the Earth lacks sunlight’s gleam
Nothing ever grows

This is my entry for KaylaAnn’s End of Summer Poetry Contest. I hope you enjoy 🙂 Info for the contest can be found HERE
The fire burned, ever so slowly
We watched, as flames grew high
Each stick thrown into the pile
Seemed to let out a hideous cry
As the fiery mass engulfed it
Soon turned it to soot and ash
Then a chill in the air sent a shiver
A reminder, that summer had passed
Sadly, she was making her exit
All we had were memories to pack
Autumn made herself be known
Now, all we could do was look back
To the warmth of the sunlit days
And oh, how the nights did sizzle
Cooler breezes now come this way
As we watched the firelight fizzle

Rain quenches a thirst
Fueled, by the sunlight streaming
Sating a hunger

Priestess of the emerald wood
Shrouded in nature’s mystery
Branches reach to seek and find
A gentle beauty, strong and free
Oracle of Life, divine
Ageless in her sunlit stance
Graceful limbs intertwined
Mesmerizing at a glance
Leaves of green do bow and sway
In rhythmic symmetry
She breathes her soul into the day
With the beautiful splendor of a tree

Night appears and chases day
Stands to watch the starlight play
Noticing one that outshines the rest
Reflecting, a glow, upon her chest
Wraps her in stardust, ever true
She watches, as mountains fade from view
No longer does the sun remain
Darkness, once again, shall reign
As she blends in with the midnight sky
And stars gently twinkle, before they die
For she is the one who chased away light
Beauty now gone, from her blinded sight
Once she was a beacon, to shine the way
Now, in the dark, filled with dismay
Hoping one day, she will shine, again
She can only wait, for she knows not when
