Tanka 1 (Autumn)

Rating: 4.7


Autumn is cryptic -
Gather anonymous mail,
Leafing it through:
Yellow and purple and red,
Kisses are flitting around.

Reminds me of a poem I posted on this site not long ago titled Autumn Whispers. Nice photo.

Thank you for reading, George! I forgot to mention, that it's not a new poem. It was written 1,5 yrs ago for a book, that's why I didn't publish it then. Though I posted it in another poetry forum.

The mysterious and obscure meaning of falling leaves, having changed their color from green to red, purple or yellow, read very well and nicely penned in a meaningful poem.

Lovely imagery. Autumn has its own beauty that you have captured so well. A wonderful short poem.

The seasonal vibe which most soothes me is the quiet solitude your basic words have efficiently returned me to. And because I think the absence of sophisticated eloquence sometimes makes the most lovely writing to behold; this hushed little poem is inspiring to me.
