deep into fall
she reveals her true beauty –
frayed autumn leaves
carpet of rich burgundy
chases the late autumn blues

Inspired by:
summer’s vines
summer’s vines
persistent as paperwork
fall to my blade
yet i want nothing more
than my head on your chest
over at
&
An evening
Of tangled thoughts…
Through branches
Even this rugged moon
Looks tattered at the edges

thoughts and entanglements 
Such beautiful lines, imagery–love the burgundy 🙂
