I love autumn and the last line is brilliant.

Well done.

Hello author, I love this poem. Lots of vivid imagery and no fluff or filler words. I especially liked:

crisp russet red leaves
(Excellent imagery)

Also:
Autumn's potpourri
(Great satori line)


Seventeen syllables of poetry perfection. Great complementary artwork choice. As this is a contest entry,
I wish you good luck. LateBloomer

This is a delightful reflection of autumn...I love the last line, "autumns potpourri". You really catch the essence of autumn in this haiku...great job!

Hi friend this word potpourri says everything, except the crispiness. This is a beautiful wringf the diverse colours of autumn and the crist dry sound under one's feet. Combined they make a great imagery.

A very well-written 5-7-5 Ode to Autumn poem. A mixture of autumn leaves a colorful Autumnal potpourri painted picture.

I like how you mixed visual and smell imagery in this ode. Sharp specific emphasis on color (russet red) in contrast with general reference to a variety of aromas. Indeed the blend is a "potpourri" that symbolizes autumn.
