Description
Vibrant Autumn has shed her brocade gown
All the lush colors of rubies, topaz and citrine
Woven so intricately with richness of spun gold
Her naked limbs dark and svelte scamper across
Cityscape and countryside without prejudice
And so she is free from her burdens of nurturing
For it is time for Nature to nurture herself
In the luxury of solitude deep in the bosom
Of her Mother Gaia--Earth's firstborn child
Has come home from her foray across the surface.
And like Nature herself it is my time as well
To put away the machinations of civilization
And take the less traveled path into myself
Find the person who was meant to be and never was
Hermetic retreat for inner reassessment
Necessary to each life form upon Gaia's breast
Neglected shamefully to fulfill the duties
Bound about our necks as yoke to oxen
Souls created to be free and enlightened
We have become pawns to politics and religion
Deathtraps meant for the wraiths of our species
Follow your own less traveled soulway be it
Mountain trail, cobblestoned alley or woodland path
Find and revel in the person you were meant to be
Before civilization set its teeth into your heart.

Wow...excellent work...beautiful picture with fitting words:)
Wow - powerful prose! Particularly like 'follow your own less traveled soulway' and I couldn't agree more that civilization does have a way of sinking its teeth into our tender artist's hearts. Exceptional writing. :o) CC
excellent. I always love your writting. The colors in the pic are awesome as well. :-)
cool creation
Extraordinary and powerful words...with so much truth ringing in them...The road less traveled, yes, that is the place to be...
Such emotions..excellent!!
Wonderful piece. Vote. When you find the person who was meant to be, do tell me how you did it. I'm in desperate need of such wisdom.
Awesome! I've literally got goosebumps from reading your prose. There's so much imagery and wisdom, not to mention food for thought. I maintain you have such a golden touch with words, and this is a shining example. Brilliant writing!
Funny how your words remind me so much of something Kieric wrote to me last autumn. Then again, birds of a feather! hehe Fantastic Poem Sweetheart!
Beautiful work on this! Your words hold so much power. Wonderfully written!
