Frosty Maple Leaves
Edged with Winter

Leaves edged with Winter in the morning
Rinsed by this unseasonable sun,
Return to russet by noon.
I wish she would work her magic on my hair.

I love that last line!! Perfection!
they look sugared – almost good enough to eat 🙂
I wish she’d work on my hair, too.
Ha! Love the poem and the richness you captured in the leaves. As another commenter said, they do look almost good enough to eat.
I must disagree with one of your tags on this post; “bad poetry”. It is a wonderful word thought to go with a beautiful image.
bad poetry? good poetry! I could use Nature’s help myself. 🙂
Wonderful image Kym! There is no snow on the ground where I am, so my “winter” shots are all looking like fall photos. This image is like a bridge between the two seasons. Most people would have simply walked all over those leaves – I’m very glad you captured the beauty.
Lovely…my blog is linked below your post and I think they are a great pairing. Your photo is delightful and I like your sense of language that follows it.
Reddish-brown with a little bit of silver. “She” has worked her magic on my hair, that’s for sure.
