Retiring the rake.

Good use of adjectives (beat-up, withering). Gets the point across within the limited word and syllable count. I might suggest adding and apostrophe s to autumn in the last line. It doesn't change the syllables but I think it works a bit better.
Good luck in the contest.

This 5-7-5 really does give the impression Autumn is on its way, the leaves, the rusty rake and a fantastic last line that is so very clever.

I wish I could retire my rake. I like the focus on this one. Good word choice in "Beat-up." Good use of alliteration with "rusty rake." Leaves falling seems to be a eulogy indeed.
