An excellent job of a nonet/reverse nonet. Attractive overall presentation and an great description of fall. I think your piece touched on the strongest representations of autumn with a pleasant visual given to go along with a smooth flowing read.

Oh this is such a miserable time of year for me....the beauty of summer leaving for the drab dull cold winters. I know a lot of people enjoy winter, I am not one of them. I love the way you made this look like an egg timer, the seeds of summer spilling away.

    Thank you sharing you insights on the change in seasons. I had not considered that the shape of the poem looked like an egg timer. A good observation. I appreciate the encouragement. Debi

I like the way the hourglass shape your double nonet parallels the dwindling away of the summer and the rise of autumn. What a splendid closing image of the trees decking themselves out in their autumn colours and then tossing their leaves like confetti at a harvest festival!

I love the design you made with this piece! Looks awesome. :) And you've got me excited for Fall. It's a bit dreary here today, with gray clouds and some rain. But this poem reminds of the awesome things Fall brings. Great work - thanks for sharing!

Hi, Deb. So good to see your writing again. Sorry I have missed so much. My book will be out in /Feb or March of 2015 btw. This ism a very well-written poem. I like these lines especially well...very descriptive:

"Trees don their festive attire
pleased to toss leaves like confetti
at the season's grand bon voyage fete"

Goodm job. see you on here soon. Bob

I love your poem about Summer and Fall . I love the Summer time and I like the Fall too, but the weather is so changeable ...You give a good description of all the the things that happen when Fall is coming .. Great work.

I honestly thought this was incredibly written. I could feel myself in each line of the poem. It was like playing a rewind of a documentary or movie.

You've written this cleanly and with precision!

Nicely done John
