Excellent

An effective 5-7-5 with an ending fitting of the newness of life born from difficult winter's trial and dormancy. Poets have times of dormancy, but it is necessary to spur to the next creative surge.

I really liked your poem. It's a good representation of a 5-7-5 poem. I enjoy reading poetry, but I don't write poems. Good job. Happy Easter.

I enjoyed this 5-7-5 poem. I know I like to write and bloom in the autumn time. Thank you for sharing your work with us. Your syllable count is right on. I also enjoyed the picture. Great choice, Shirley

I absolutely love autumn, so I really enjoyed reading this poem but I am confused by your second line. Do you not want it to last long or do you think it doesn't last long enough? Your syllable count is perfect, well done!

Comment from J.R Dickinson

Excellent

You seem to be very creative with your poems, especially short ones.
"It has three phases:
Line 1: Beckoning
Line 2: Appealing
Line 3: Blooming"

You phases comment in your author's notes helped me to understand this better, and I believe you blended it together rather nicely and enjoyed reading Autumn.

Best regards,

J.R

Reads like a very short "ode" of course, Al ... my only question on this one would be why:
stay short after heat and rain? - why "short"? do you mean that autumn itself only stays a short time after the heat and rain of summer? :)S

Comment from ravenblack

Good

I understand this one, the call for poets as flowers to bloom. the second line, in relation to the others, does not make much sense. and why pose it as a question?
