Ah yes, autumn and those crunching leaves!
My first attempt at a nonet poem. It’s a lovely and easy form, if you want to do a shorter piece of poetry that is.
Rules:
You write a 9 line poem. First line has 9 syllables and each line reduces by a syllable until the last is 1 syllable.
Crisp moments
Crisp, brown, crimson and yellows crunching
Crinkled blankets; covered crescents
Calm and collected visions
Brushing my booted feet
Abundant colours
Gracefully glow
Autumn crunch
Natures
Crisp
Bernie Egerton
I hope you’re enjoying this crispy weather and all those autumn colours π
Thank you for stopping by and have a great day β€
