Great fun, off the wall words in your profile.
With respect, maybe write 'tough (space) down', as on first glance I read 'leaves' as 'OMITS' in the context, if that makes any sense. Mind you, I can be dim at times.
Very original and entertaining haiku.
Best wishes, Ray.

Really enjoyed your haiku about autumn. I'm a purist so I liked the 5-7-5 syllables. Great use of double meanings....leaves touchdown and winter loses yards. I wonder if football sized should be hyphenated? Good luck.

well let me see.... 1st the 6 stars is really nice and sweet...
double meanings? "what ever do you mean," me play with words, "not me. I'm in my prime."
6 stars go to you for pointing that out... I like to twist and combine thoughts or ideas, so that it
shows many faces and read backwards or forwards. This one just seem to fall into place ...
size, sized, sized'.... you got me.... I do not do well with that kind of stuff nor commas, for which I am the worse...
Anyway, thanks one again for the rating, and your review... Mr. Pumpkin Head

Great imagination here, and it looks like a winner for certain. But I may submit an entry, also, just for fun. You have posted a notable haiku - good work, and deserving of my best grade. I would not change a word.

Yes I too just did this for fun as I find these a bit of a challenge and treat it like math, by connecting words or numbers... Take care... Mr/Mrs/Ms Pumpkin Head

Evidently you caught on pretty quick! This is much better and I'm raising my rating!

Wonderful and witty haiku on the OTHER things that come with autumn!!
My only note is that you don't have two lines grammatically connected...?

grammatically connected? Forgive me as I do not know this stuff, but did consult another who said, "where's the problem."
So please help so I might learn by correcting by example... Thank you for your review and comments... Mr/Mrs/Ms. Pumpkin Head
Dear M/M/M,
See Rule #5, listed below to help.
Though you have a firm grasp of the hardest part of wrangling these wily creatures, this is another point that can trip you up every time! They're slippery, it's true! Stay with it. This is a 'contenda'!! *smile*
5) two lines of inter-connected and grammatically flowing imagery (written as ONE sentence over two lines), plus a satori line ('ah-ha' moment). Satori may be 1st or 3rd
