Season September

Season September She is upon us in full bloom
And with Her the wondrous and windy kiss
Teasing October's orange leaves into the upcoming mist...
To find themselves perhaps something anew...
Season September is upon us Her season is here
For She knows it soon will be time for some pumpkin and some pie
Where the Fourth or the Second the colour cannot lie...
Season September is upon us indeed
As the acorn and the apple fall to their fate,
The cold air flows from Her weakening sun...
Lifting Her shorter days to longer nights...
To our fire's huddling delight...
Season September is upon us
As frost sleeps with grass till the morning finally dawns...
Season September is upon us She is here at last
Watch as Her blowing leaves the blustery day
To Her chilly whites...
To the sweet anticipation of a child's snowy play...
August August was fine indeed
He brought warmth and fire and things in need
But the smoothness of Her Fall
Makes fine chestnuts of us all
Season September is here
The Finest of Seasons
The Season of September is here

    Welcome to AllPoetry

    Season September gives the poem conviction, strength and imagery with your words and personification wonderfully flowing down the page

    The use of the elipse is good, a little over-used but it is a great poem


    Thank You for your entry in New Members - September & Best of Luck

    Welcome to Allpoetry and thank you for entering the contest

    I love the way in which you so clearly bring this month alive, through your words, personification and imagery. It allows us to see the season, and the month, in a new light.

    Keep in mind, an elipse is not always a good thing to use. Commas and full stops are great uses of punctuation in a piece of poetry.

    Welcome to Allpoetry and I hope that you enjoy your stay
    Thank you for entering our contest and I wish you the best of luck

    Should you have any questions, please feel free to ask me

    There is a lot of potential in the personification you have used, and some pretty imagery too. Good luck in the contest and thanks for sharing.

    I reallt enjoyed the way that you uniquly personified the season, giving it a deeper feeling of life and movement. you have used a wonderful selection of words from the word bank and in doing so you have managed to write a powerful and poetical piece that really fits the topic of the contest. a wonderful write. well done and best of luck
