PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

The haunting autumn breeze

Carried auburn thoughts

Into the yearning scarlet dusk

In an Indian summer, long ago

Sunset always suited me

Along with love, your silhouette

And indanthrene shadows, forgotten

In the eternal seasons, saturated

With the scent perfume, sage and lemongrass

I see you've painted your ghostly eyes

Vermillion like the red hills

Contrasting midnight billowing hair

And porcelain skin of the orient

But even if you didn't glow

I'd still burn for you....
