What do you think of these poems?

I have written these two poems and would now like to know what you think of them and what I could improve.

End of summer!

Amidst the colorful trees

a deeply sad picture of autumn unfolds.

Leaves, once full of life, wither, die, and pass away, while gently whispering winds lament an extinguished sky.

The sun, a tired and distant glow,

casts long shadows on the suffocating summer.

In the paralyzing silence of this passing day, the tears of nature find their way in the steady rain.

From a bare tree, a lonely crow caws plaintively,

a plaintive song of what once was.

The world, in a colorful garment,

sighs desperately, with unfulfilled longings, a bitter wish.

As daylight fades and darkness approaches,

we must endure the severity of autumn

in the oppressive silence of the dying light, endure.

The tears of autumn tear your eyes apart from within.———————————————————

Autumn!

The dark autumn returns, full of fruit and abundance,

Yellowed shine of past summer days.

A pure blue emerges from a decaying shell;

The flight of birds sounds from ancient legends.

The wine is pressed, the mild silence

Filled with quiet answers to dark questions.

And here and there a cross on a desolate hill;

A herd gets lost in the red forest.

The cloud wanders over the pond surface;

The farmer's calm demeanor rests.

Very quietly the evening's blue wing moves

A roof of dry straw, the black earth.

Soon stars will nest in the weary man's brows;

Into cool rooms returns a quiet modesty,

And angels quietly step out of the blue

Eyes of lovers who suffer more gently.

The reed rustles; a bony horror falls,

When the black dew drips from the bare willows.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

Please format it properly and then post it as a screenshot.

It looks very visual, but the formatting may make. a rhythm visible. This is hard to read as a continuous text.

There are some doubling in there. (rests – calm bears)

Interpunktion, large-size, missing spaces.

I like both poems very well, visually and atmosphericly written. Think again about paragraphs and here I would definitely change something: “The world, in the colourful robe” (coloured robe?)

Love greetings
