A beautiful death, lol? Sounds pretty good. Congrats on your contest win. I missed the voting, but I thought this was a worthy choice.
Take care,

Comment from Bill Schott
This 5-7-5 about death, Flames of Glory, has the correct syllable count and suggests that we too will be given a beautiful end with awesome splendor. Hope so.

Good question - what indeed?
I love the brilliant-coloured artwork too.
Keep it up. I'm afraid I don't have the expertise to review your poem
in a structurally helpful way. But I hope knowing I enjoyed it is just as good.

I can see why this poem won the contest. Autumn both literally and figuratively reminds individual man of his mortality and mankind of the consequences of their actions.

Love this, wonderful idea and expression of faith in what is in store for us in the afterlife! It reminds me of the hymn, "He Loves Me Too".... great job.

Comment from Ogden
I'm pleased to say, "I told you so!"
You're far more clever than you know.
You won this contest fair and square,
You can't deny your talent there.
But thank you for your flattery;
No one knows me like I know me.
Wear those laurels, Debbie Pope,
And many more! (And soon, I hope.)

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written thought-provoking 5-7-5. I agree with you Autumn is the most beautiful srason even when it means every leave has to die. God brings glory and honor to the dying leaves. .

Comment from Mrs. KT
Hello!
What I so appreciate in your 5/7/5 poetic offering is its spiritual quality. It addresses the question that if God sends off leaves in the autumn - in such a blaze of glory - surely man's "send off" - reward - might be even filled with more glory. Your poetry creates a quiet moment of reflection, and that is, indeed, a gift of any writing. Thank you for sharing your wonderful gift...
