In The Golden Light Of Autumn Leaves
Now Here Walks The Witch Of The Season
With Her Light And Four Cats, Under Trees
She's The Protector Of This Region

She Is Casting Her Spells In The Night
Gracefully Moves In Her Sacred Dance

She Holds Her Lamp, Its Gold Light Flickers
She Is The True Forest Sorceress
She Will Paint Autumn's Golden Picture

In Golden Light Is The Autumn Witch

I took my son and niece to Gori, a small town in Georgia where Joseph Stalin was born. They talked me into visiting the Stalin's Museum, the largest in the post-Soviet space. I had resisted going there because I just can't stand the monster and know enough about him, or so I thought.

I really like this poem - it has such strong imagery; I feel like I can see the scenes in my head as I read. I love how you drew inspiration from a creator in a different medium to make something new and enchanting!
Absolutely beautiful sonnet to accompany beautiful artwork.
Lovely, autumn is my favourite time of the year. Perhaps I am the witch, π. Wonderful imagery!
Ohh how beautiful! I love the poem. The painting is lovely.
