Hi Bill
This is a very well written and illustrated haiku. I like the original metaphor of each season as its own kingdom with the their rising
and falling a pun for the leaves falling and returning.
Good luck in the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have a wonderful weekend.

Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us. Autumn is my favorite season for the exact reasons you described in this poem. The rich colors. Good luck with the contest.

Fantastic haiku for the contest. Good syllables count and connection between lines. Lovely presentation. I like the juxtaposition of the land seasons and humans.

Your words and your pic remind me of hiking in New Hampshire. Autumn is my favorite season and you make the leaves and trees come alive in your words. I like the line "kingdoms fall and rise again." It shows Autumn in action. Excellent haiku form and use of words.

I absolutely love this poem, both your descriptive words and the colors you used to present it. I like the idea of the seasons dressing up for the change. Best of luck in the contest.

Fall always takes away my joy from summer and never really seems to promise me the pendulum will swing back again. So, I might as well find pleasure in this and a whole site full of autumn poems honoring its return.

I just hate when winter comes and makes transporting my wife harder.

Please forgive my tardiness in replying. I have had much trouble with my wheelchair and could not spend much time on the site for a few days. I am thankful for your words and works.

Hail the unstoppable assault of seasonal change, hail, snow, rain, growth, leaves falling, rinse and repeat. Birth, growth, maturity, old age, eventual death, again, rinse and repeat. Such are the stages of life.
