Congratulations on your winning poem! The imagery in it gives me a very accurate depiction of what October is like in your area, portrayed in a richly poetic manner. I enjoyed embracing your Autumn, stepping away from my Spring here.

Hello Lisa!
So pleased you enjoyed! October's ways are in high gear this morning: freezing weather and rain! But still gorgeous outside...and inside...where I plan to stay by a friendly fire!
Thank you again!

Dismal day here too. i'll go to the public library and enjoy the warmth there - they can pay the heating bill rather than me!
Comment from Y. M. Roger
CONGRATS ON FIRST PLACE!! A beautiful offering for the Even-the-Odds contest -- was such a wonderful feast for both mind and palette, my lady! :) And I'm running lots later than I thought today... youngest came home for the weekend (hooray!!) and those few errands...? Well, let's just say when I got home I was beyond distracted with the 'followup' on a couple (returns, washing, and then putting away the cleaning I got lost in sorting another part of the closet.... you know the drill - lol!)
Soooo, here's the six I've been hoarding for you all week -- put it in the holding bin once I read yours since I absolutely loved the gardening and the 'calling' of the Libra skies... just awesome!!
Take care of you and I'll be back on tomorrow... !! ;) :) Yvette

Good Morning, Yvette!
I am thrilled that you would deem this piece "exceptional." Had it not been for your creativity, I would never have known about the "Even-the-Odds" format - which has become one of my absolute favorite poetic formats to attempt.
Thank you again, friend!

what a good poem. Love the colors of autumns. There's always lots of fall colors in these poems which I love. I also love to write about fall. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Iza Deleanu
Beautiful image that makes us love autumn more for its unique measure, the border of life and death. But there is hope for life to go on :"Under Libra's skies,
there sleeps Spring's
prize" Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.

Comment from harmony13
The author's words were colorful, engaging, creative thought provoking.
The reader thought of spring for the first time in months and pondered
on the last two line of this poem. The poem flows and connects well.
The artwork goes well with the theme and words of this poem.

-Very nice image
and presentation.
-The syllable count is good,
along with the synonyms.
-You have written this
very well with vivid imagery
and rhyme that creates a
smooth flow to the poem.
-I like this line "frosty morns; smoky haze"
and the one that follows, too.
-A very good ending.
-A good entry; good luck.

This form is a true challenge that you have met and produced a very meaningful poem at the same time. It isn't easy, right? The picture is so fitting. Well done.
