I think for the topic of death in nature, the one you chose is a good topic. I am not sure I see the flames of glory, though I understand what you are saying. When we die he will be there with us in all his glory. It is a perfect topic and perfect 5/7/5 poem for the contest. I have told several people, you have all written such perfect poems on this topic, I am glad I do not have to choose the winner. Good Luck and Best Wishes in the Contest! Sherman541

    Do I need a more brilliant picture of fall color? Or do you believe that humans won't die in flames of glory when we go to heaven? I was trying to say that If God sends the leaves out in such flames, will he not do the same for us? Do you like this better...
    If God sends the leaves
    Out in such flames of glory
    What's in store for man

    I do actually like this version better and I think it would also better match your picture and convey the message you trying to send. As I stated, I do understand God and his Glory, but I do really believe this second version is a much better version. ;) If you change or not, Again Good Luck and Best Wishes.

This is a good entry for the 5-7-5 Death in Nature writing contest.
Your verse has a clear story in so few words.
Well done, and good luck to you with the competition.
