Autumn will take me to another place
Not where I
am
But where I wish to see again.
There is no autumn in the Caribbean
But we have some days that remind me of
That other place.
The Caribbean breezes
And the warm beach on an evening
The orange and yellow sky
On a morning, sometimes
Remind me of that autumn place
I hope to see again.
Before my memory fades
And I forget all I wish to remember
I want to feel that wisp of a chill
That heralds a new season is close.
The days I love them most
With colors to be adored – like me
I miss that autumn place.

A beautiful poem, Donna-Louisa! Autumn is a state of mind and in your heart always, even in the Caribbean. 🍂 🍁
ReplyDeleteThank you.. I felt quite nostalgic writing this, and wished to jump on a plane and travel 😃
DeleteAutumn is a lovely season. Even in those areas where there is subtle change. To be present in the moments of any day can help us remember those things that make us happy :)
