How I would love to walk with you through this beautiful path, enjoying all the things you have described. A beautiful poem and so fitting for this time of year. By the way, a belated Happy Birthday. Hope you had a great one.

A magnificent presentation in this perfect form. Your art is exquisite!
The beauty of Autumn is unsurpassed in other seasons, even though they too are filled with beauty.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Ralf

a butterfly ballet - I love that description Yvonne, in your lovely, descriptive walk in the woodlands. Great rhyming and phrasing -
kaleidoscopic avalanche - in your swap quatrain. Lovely presentation.

Ah, I imagined this walk with you, dear Yvonne! You would draw my attention to every magical detail among bugs, bird, and plants! My favorite line was "kaleidoscopic avalanche."

I loved the picture of the leaves turning the multitude of colors and the visible twisting road, damommy. This was a great swap quatrain that definitely dealt with the finds of nature, it was perfect. Very well done and greatly enjoyed.

Lovely swap lines. You did an excellent job with them and the rhyme. This sounds so inviting, with the beautiful fall leaves, the creek, maybe a fox. The imagery is very appealing--the butterfly ballet, the kaleidoscopic avalanche. Altogether visually stunning. I wish there had been more contrast between the black font and the background color. judi

    Thank you for this wonderful review. I'm sorry if the font and background were a problem for you. I appreciate that you reviewed it anyway. 8-)

Hello Yvonne.

Your picture complements the fine poem you have written. As you know, I don't pay attention much to style, but I'm sure you have met the swap quatrain rules in structure.

Well done, and a pleasant read. I particularly like the butterfly ballet.

Robert

Another lovely Swap Quatrain in the offering this morning. A repeat which is not really a repeat . It just seems to be a confirmation of the first line. Well done Yvonne. Nancy:)

I was all set to give you a five star rating, but after reading your notes on the swap quatrain, I quickly changed my mind. I've got to get up to snuff on all the different poetic forms. This is a great poem.
