Reddened Leaves

Perhaps my favorite season and your words capture my sentiments exactly. The minute I see leaves like depicted in your illustration, I think fall.

Great response to the prompt. I loved the images, especially "a red leafed floor." Well done and well crafted, especially with the use of alliteration throughout

This is a beautiful poem. Tha background and font color go perfectly with the visual. It's well done but the last line is 6 syllables and not five.
Upon=2- I use a dictionary the dot in between is where the syllable is located.
a= 1
red=1
leaf=1
floor=1 Fix that line and you have a perfect contest entry.

Your words are beautifully set with their fall frame of leaves photo. The russet background is a great choice and pops out each word.
For this 5 - 7 - 5 poem your poem ends in 6 syllables. If you change Upon
to On you would then have the required 17 syllables. Just a suggestion, You
own your poem. Julcia

This is nicely written and the artwork is gorgeous. It's hard to find a lot to say about these short poems so I will just say that it is great writing. I see it is a contest entry so I wish you all the luck in the world.

Thanks for your review.
Comment from RodG
I really like your metaphor of "flaming" leaves "crackling" in the "crispy autumn air." But I think your last line would benefit from a specific noun denoting where "there" is rather than your use of rhyme.
