Autumn Paintbrush - Revised/rewritten

[Ca ne fait rien]

Stef, you're not going to like me very much... but your edited version is a lot more "tell" than "show", especially the changes to the second stanza, and I think you've really lost the depth that the immediacy of "sprouting winter wheat exhales" contrasted with "in the church, tattered banners hold..." was giving the poem.

I do like "frills the edge of castled clouds" though

I like you very much for being honest and truthful- I tried again,

Thanks for the suggestions, Addy- they were really helpful.
