Absolutely gorgeous poem; very uplifting and happy. This is a cool format, too, with the incredible picture. The bit of pink really make this a visual treat. I love Fall so much. Great work. Bruce.

    Thanks for the review, Bruce. I appreciate your comments about the poem being uplifting and happy, along with the format and picture. I know you said you love Fall. I like the season, too. Don't forget Sun. or whatever day my next poem is up. Another autumn one.

Fantastic Cinquain. In a few words, you told a story that is beyond imagination. Not only is this an exciting read, but it's also reminiscent of frolicking in leaves.

She will be so pleased with this special book. I like your addition of this lovely cinquain, Pam. Autumn is a wonderful time of the year with a multitude of vibrant colors.

Oh, Pam -- wonderful offering as it is big and bright and kindof 'hums' along as it's read aloud... fun! ;) Thanx for sharing, my lady -- this one will be great!! ;) Yvette

    Thanks for the review, Yvette. I appreciate your comments about my autumn poem being bright and "humming along." I do a lot of humming so that is an apt description:)

Hi Pam,

I'm not sure what the book is about, but I'm sure it is very supportive. Your poem is lovely and embodies the essence of Autumn. I love the imageries of a kaleidoscope and mural.

Well done,
Rhonda

I enjoyed your kaleidoscope simile and alliteration of "m's". The picture reinforces the theme very well. Thank you for paying tribute to Katherine's mother as well. Cheers- Joan

Autumn /fall isn't my favourite time of year, but I do love the striking colors of the leaves. Like you say, a kaleidoscope, indeed. I love how you have shaped the poem into a shape of a leaf. Very clever. I think my FS subscription runs out tomorrow. Keep up the good work. :)

    Thank you for the exceptional rating and review, Tessa. I appreciate your comments about the colors of leaves, and the shape of the poem. It actually comes from the syllable count and centering it. I am sorry your subscription will be running out. Take care and be well, and continued success!! If you are still on, I have another poem for Sun.

I think Barbara will really like this fine cinquain, Pam. Autumn definitely is a kaleidoscope of magical colours.

Your large print makes is much easier to see and enjoy.

Always a pleasure to review your work.

With a pleasant alliteration on the M over the last two lines, this cinquain gives us a brilliant technicolour look at the season of mists and mellow fruitfulness.

    Thanks for the review. I appreciate your comments about the alliteration and the "technicolor look" of the season. That would have made a good line in the poem!
