Indian summer blew by like
dandelions nights filled with
a golden orb hanging low in the
shadowy sky an inflated swollen
moon that whispered of waving
harvests and sun kissed grains.
Indian summer flew by like
birds’ migrations south through
chilled air and leaves turning
scarlet, sunglow, and burnt umber
pumpkins ripening amidst tangled
vines twisting and turning.

You have definitely sown a beautiful description for the season… I could just imagine myself in it…the changing of the shades and the mood of Indian summer…I love it Pamela bella
Melissa Bella,
I’m fall obsessed! Someday, I will be surrounded by the change of seasons and I will be nearly paralyzed with joy

The only thing I feel is the onslaught of “Irene”. Do hope she behaves herself and leaves us alone. Fall would be lovely around now!!!
Haha, thank God it looks like it’s going to miss us. Feel bad for the target location though
So beautiful! Still wishing for Indian Summer to hang on this year….but fall brings good things too…I love the word “umber”
Thanks Maureen! Awh, I love that word, too!
Indian summer will be fast approaching. Your beautiful poem captures it well.
Glad to hear from you Dan! It’s been a while! Hope all is well with you!
