Loved how you took us from the setting of the sun to the beauty of the Milky Way. You draw our attention to all the beauty of the Earth during this time of rest for the ground before "Springtime's flair."

Comment from nancyjam
I thoroughly enjoyed reading your beautiful poem. wonderful descriptive images throughout give the reader a real sense of the scene before you.
the pink and grey sky as the sun sets, the harvest moon and the stars -
picture painted with a great choice of words.
Beautifully rhymed and with excellent meter.
Thanks for sharing

Comment from June Sargent
With snow on the ground and more to come over the weekend, we are anxiously awaiting spring's return with flair! Autumn is lovely here in New England - with the changing leaves. But the old bones prefer the warmth now of spring and summer. I enjoyed this piece.

Comment from CD Richards
A very lovely nature poem, with delightful descriptions of scenes typical of autumn. I like the fact it's written in hexameter, rather than the more common 5 or 7 beats. It gives it a unique flavour. Very nicely done.

Janet,
Well, I for one, am pleased and blessed that you rediscovered it. *smile* What a scene! And told so beautifully and clearly in poetic stanzas without the slightest hiccup or interruption to the lyrical quality.
I have always been impressed with your talent. But, starting at this moment, right now, I have entered a new zone of fandom. Wow.

Oh Robyn, Your encouragement has had a profound affect on my writing. I was going through a dry spell when I wrote "Another Monday Morning Rain". Your review started me looking through my journals and tablets where I write a line or word that I find interesting and found this October poem. You have really helped me "up my game" and I look forward to finding more nuggets to get me back to being creative. Thank you. You're the best.
Blessings and thank you too for those shiny stars.

I enjoyed your poem of another time. You authors notes made me reflect on a happier time, a more innocent time not to long ago. The world seems a bit off kilter.

Comment from Michele Harber
Your words are very vivid, enabling the reader to clearly see the images you describe. The adjectives you chose - i.e., "lofty," "smoky," "snowy," "musty" - are very expressive and add to the beautiful job you do of painting a picture and appealing to the various senses. Your rhymes are well chosen, and I love your pairing of "far" and "repertoire."

Comment from Gypsy Blue Rose
October Sun
by Jmf4119
Hello, my friend,
Beautiful rhyming poem about nature and changing seasons. It makes me think of haiku because it has such strong autumn imagery. I almost feel like writing a haiku about your poem. If I do I will give you credit.
Well done!
my haiku interpretation:
Amber Sun by Gypsy Blue Rose, inspired by JMF4119, ''October Sun''
amber sun behind
lofty hills and smoky clouds
twilight chill
dusk settles
as stars shine in the Milky Way
brilliant harvest moon
snowy owl swoops low
to grab its evening prey
echoes on night's edge
leaves swirl down
and scatter near and far
noble trees bereft of glory
fertile ground's repertoire
to rest and rise again
in Springtime
