Yes, that is definitely an accurate way of looking at the change of seasons when autumn approaches. I liked this one. I found it to be fresh and original. Very nice. :)

Comment from Ridley Williams
Beautiful colors to go with this piece.
The red carpet of fall leads the way
to the white pristine carpet of winter.
Nice thought, Ridley

Comment from Righteous Riter
The syllable count is consistent with that of a 5-7-5. The photo fits this piece perfectly as the words bring the photo to life. The writer delivers a message that is short, simple and to the point.

Comment from ravenblack
Can't go wrong
With the contrast
Of fire and ice.
Flames of bursting flair- excellent line,the word play between flair as in style and flare as in flame like a road flare. And such a natural personification of autumn that it is barely noticed. Red leaves in contrast to white - excellent work.

Hi Ed, That means a great deal to me. I realized the personification which is most consistent with my style. I'm used to the static and do what I do best - ignore that rule. Frankly, I've never understood the opposition since ancients like "Issa" often used that device. I've seen a lot of change in acceptable rules of haiku over the years. Who knows, perhaps personification will go out with the trend. Thanks for your beautiful comments and excellent rating. Best regards :)

A lovely Nature 5/7/5 and a good picture to go with it. You have the correct syllable count and have mentioned the word Nature in the poem which was required. Good Luck in the contest. Regards Dorothy
