Excellent

For our upcoming season, this short poem reflects that feeling and scene. Of course to emphasize your pumpkin color, I would have selected a photograph that showed a stronger orange tinge to it.

Best wishes in the voting.

Mark

P.S. IMHO... initial caps are unnecessary for this type of poem.

This is cute--I like the juxtaposition of Pumpkins/Fun--they certainly are. Sugg: expand upon the imagery by taking advantage of the title spaces rather than repeating line of poem.

I don't understand your suggestion. The contest is over though.

reply by Elizabeth Emerald on 11-Sep-2021

What I mean is, use the two title lines to maximum effect--consider them free space--cram more imagery into the poem and expand upon the theme of the poem instead of having the title be the same as a line of the poem.

Fall is one of my favorite seasons, you have brought to mind the loveliness of the trees, the pumpkins and I look forward to all of it. Best of luck with this wonderful contest entry. :)

"Autumn Trees" is short, succinct and delightfully descriptive. Penned with craft and skill. This talented poet's work was a pleasure to both read and review. Good luck with the contest. Please let me know how you get on?

Oh, what a great sentiment! Very well written. This is a wonderful autobiographical poem. I feel the same way. Fall is beautiful...pumpkins are lots of fun. Good job

I have always loved studying trees...all kinds and in all seasons. I think they are a great gift to people living in a world where so much destructive action takes place. My heart aches over the ongoing destruction of the Amazon forest. This is an excellent entry. Best wishes in the contest!
