Here are some poems Orange wrote during her life of main character in my new novel “Orange Lemonpie of the First-Year Stars” which I wrote during NaNoWriMo this passing month of November. I still have some work on it, yet the frenzy is over.
Chapter VI
You see that carpet on the ground,
Which makes that cheerful sound?
Leaves fall and autumn turns them bright,
Each one – a feast for our sight.
–
Beneath each tree there is a quilt
Patch-work – it’s patterned beautif’lly.
Let’s go and see – it gives me thrills
To lie and dream in reverie.(*)
(*) – I edited that last line, as Orange herself did not like it. 😉

Chapter XX
Your eyes sweep me off
To the autumn forest
Where I fall asleep.
–
And your lips
Remind me of the
Autumn leaves
Which fly by
As days of wonder shuffle
Beyond my reason.

I have a vague feeling that the numbering is wrong… However, the novel is to be edited and perhaps translated.
