Autumn Dreams 'with audio'

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B1CDwQMLJs6QM1pvc1p1Uk5Ha1k/edit?usp=do…

In Autumn dreams
Whistling wind chords sing
And leaves whirl wildly
Falling from tall oaks

Yellow, red, orange blade-like petals
Travels in the cool breeze
As I peer from my chair
On folded arm my chin rested

As winter played this wintry day
Snow flurries cover fallen leaves
Swooping down from treetops
Bluebirds footprints in the snow

Thanks

Roscoe, thanks for reading and sharing. I've recorded it and it's ready to share, but I still seeking a way to find a way to get the audio file from my google drive or iPhone voice memo.

Barbara, you need to read Beau's blog

"Audio on Neopoet" carefully. You can record the poem directly onto Vocaroo. You can also get apps on your device that allow you to record mp3's, which you could then transfer to Vocaroo.

nice poem.

Thanks Jess

Vocoroo won't allow me to do so at the moment on my iPad or iPhone. I've done so with Google Drive. . You can listen to it now.

thanks for reading and sharing. Im glad your enjoyed the audio. I deleted several audios until i felt right as I often stumble in words. Just like grammar and error I must revised to get it near clarity. lol

I am loving hearing poet's own voices!

I like the poem, though refrained from critiquing it before I heard it and now I love it and understand all your work a great deal more.

No wonder you have problems with traditional meter! It is not your language. I intend to go back and re-read some of your works with your voice in mind and I urge you to post your poems with an audio link more often.

This is so gorgeous, true and lovely!

Thanks for reading and sharing. It bring my heart joy to hear you say that. I wondered why meter was so hard. I write what I hear and to know it not traditional meter was a bit stressing.
My nature, in general, is different from any status quo as I tend to struggle with understanding.
As for having a different poetic language all my own may not be such a bad thing if people can enjoy it

Being told I'm natural makes me feel better knowing my strangeness can make a difference for good.
