Crisp Cool Winds

by Gypsy Blue Rose

crisp cool winds

fuss about ma’s garden

stirring golden, saffron, and red leaves

~*~

faceless gourds

and pre-creepy pumpkins 

scattered across threaded vines and soil

~*~

screams echo 

after halloween day

putrid pumpkins are left in the lurch

"Autumn leaves don't fall, they fly. They take their time and wander on their only chance to soar." -- Delia Owens

3/6/9 poems only require syllables and line count

The excess pumpkins are donated to local zoos; given to farm animals; or used for land's natural fertilizer

Left in the lurch = abandoned

Thank you very much for taking the time to read and review my poem.
