Love Poem: Autumn Fire
Sara Kendrick Avatar
Written by: Sara Kendrick

Autumn Fire

The Forsythia is aflame
Delight runs once again
The red oak draws strength to ignite
Love bellows a refrain

A red-orange dress over brown
Leggins' so tight a shame
Dancin' the flamingo about
Town, autumn fire untame

Falling, falling into a flamin'
Fire, love, love's wild desire
And it burns, burns autumn's
fire, deeper lovers mire

Until at last love goes sour
Another comes, separates
From the ashes a spark ignites
Dancin' again on date
