Autumn At Sea Level

(Poetry Challenge Week 2)

Wednesdays are writing challenge days so here's this weeks poem Autumn at Sea Level as written in line at Starbucks 10 minutes ago.

Mermaids do not drink Pumpkin Spice Lattes

when the reef burns

orange and red,

shedding old life

as the days grow short

and cold.

Not my best work, I'll admit, but I'm having surgery this week so my brain has been kind of busy with other things. Feel free to send me your poem about Autumn at Sea Level either through the contact page or directly to me at kdaroff12@gmail.com and stayed tuned for Week 3: Communicating.
