Collage by Gemma Wiseman ~ Autumn and Spring on the Mornington Peninsula

One Single Impression prompt #30 ~ Autumn

Spring's sister Autumn
Radiant red and gold tresses
Falling like jewels
~
Autumn's sister Spring
Candy crystallised posies
Dancing like fresh dew

Lost cascades return
Phoenix legends find new wings
Timeless yin and yang

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

You have created a structure that interests me, Gemma. Especially the way you tie the two seasons together in the third stanza.
I also like the collage, especially using the top of the fence like you have.
I enjoyed your response to the prompt.
I really love the third stanza, too. Nature is a Phoenix; experiencing the rebirth of seasons, in its own cycle.
I like the structure, too. You create a meditation that demonstrates the relationship between yin and yang. Beautiful!
These stanzas all go together very nicely - the rhythm of the swing between yin and yang!
Lovely series. You are just heading into Spring, I guess as Autumn visits here. Happy Peace Day. May the day come when every day is peace day.
This is lovely and what images you weave. Love it
love-bd
I really like the seasonal yin and yang in both your poem and the photo collage. As us northerners head toward winter, it is wonderful to be reminded that spring will arrive.
Wonderful collage. We have the autumn sister visiting now, but your lovely photos, makes me long for spring, too.
Great collage of images and haiku - transitionally seasoned!
I enjoy your collage and words very much. Love the symmetry you see in these seasonal sisters.
I love the sister imagery!! it's just perfect.
lost cascades return...yep, that's what i find myself waiting for when autumn fades
Dear Gemma--
Your site is lovely!
And I like this submission re: autumn...even though it's not where you live and thrive.
It's beautiful seeing the juxtaposition of the seasons.
Thank you! And thank you for visiting my post!
