Wishfull

Watching the floating leaves in fall
touch down gently upon the earth
they seem to cover its naked form
in a blanket of heavy emotion...

Caressing the simmering earth below
they clutch to its passionate warmth
till the whisper of a brewing breeze
scatters them to spread their charm..

Strewn along in a pattern so rich
woven with golden silken streams,
the earth below now comes alive
as tender love within it sprouts...

The leaves make way to softy flakes
as they float and alight in a heap,
the love within now springs to life
with a new heart and a wish so full....

a pattern so rich...

could describe your eloquent writing my friend! I so enjoyed this Raj! You are always so interesting in your descriptions. My favorite part was this:

Caressing the simmering earth below
they clutch to its passionate warmth
till the whisper of a brewing breeze
scatters them to spread their charm..

absolutely beautiful Raj

Raj,

sorry to sound like a broken record, but yet again your poetry has taken away from the struggles of life and into a paradise.

I read a lot of poetry on neopoet and other sites too, and I must say the only poetry of a calm nature that works for me, is yours. Have you considered putting all your works in a book...happy to buy one as long as you sign it for me.

Thanks for the beautifully crafted poem of calm, tranquility and peace.

regards,

a much more relaxed HS

once upon a time

I once wrote a poem..... AUTUMN LEAVES

You surpass my imagination
i shall have those poems buried
in the snows of QUEBEC
and shall be happy so
to buy a signed book
of yours
Autumn leaves
once for all.

congrats
many poets have already spoken
what value you give to me
tis totally left my friend
to thee,.
