I like how you address the cycle of life in your poem, that the red leaves of autumn need to detach and fall to the ground so eventually there will be room for new leaves to appear. Great imagery in so few words.

Your poem felt like it had a spiritual feeling. Truly unique and a joy to read. Life, I
feel is rebirth. We die in winter to be born again in spring, autumn and summer are the days of our lives.

Hi
This is a good entry for the contest. Good luck with that!!
Your poem is not only a 575 poem. It is actually a haiku with a good Satori line at the end.
You may already know what Satori means. It means that it's a surprise, that it's unexpected.
So you could've entered this in the haiku contest, any haiku contest anywhere in the world
Nice job
I enjoyed reading your poem
Good job. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks you for your review.
I have heard mention the satori line when talking about haiku but never known what it means. Thanks for clearing that up.

The only problem I see is that the contest required that you use the word "autumn" in the poem. You used "fall," but it's not the same. You got the syllable count right. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Thank you Jess, that passed by me completely. Looks like it did the same to the committee. Now fixed.

This 5-7-5, Nature's Cycle, has the proper formatting and seems to promise the leaves their next chance at riding in the trees. New leaves will hear this too.

This is a beautiful reminder that all of life has a cycle. Death and wilting must happen in order for new life to appear. Good job with this and happy writing!!!!!
