dVerse — MTB — Mid-Season Splendor

https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4125/5005973647_3f41807466_z.jpg

Juiceless lemons see-saw the sky
Autumn fruits reigning down
Bright flattened squash
Light figgy bosh
Autumn fruits reigning down

Yet green grows grass, persistent clown
Dichotomy that’s posh
As trees grow bare
Lawn takes the share
Dichotomy that’s posh

Seasons tease many-hued montage
Summer, fall, here and there
Coin toss descry
Moment’s reply
Summer, fall here and there

Which one it is, I do not care
A pleasant reverie
Caught in profound
Nature’s salon
A pleasant reverie

You can write on any topic but you might like to stick to the roundabout [form] and its associations…
