I love! Its different from other sonnets, the verses are full of vibration and vibrant colors. Autumn is one of those short seasons, so why not make a sonnet about autumn!
Great appreciation post upon seasonal autumn :))

Times are gone but not forgotten memories of time past still live on and the trees rember the kindness and happiness they once were able to provide to lovers.

A lovely description of an Autumn dawn. It took me along the walk. The mood is nostalgic and somewhat in tune with a "season" gone. The images are outstanding and the artwork, stunning.

Hi

This is an excellent written Acrostic poem. I liked how you tried to make it into a sonnet. all your lines have 8 syllables, which you can actually write sonnets using 8 syllables. Though you did use the Shakespearean sonnet rhyme scheme of abab cdcd efef gg which your rhyme scheme is spot on. The poem itself I feel is fantastic. Normally in a competition, I would probably knock a star or two if you said it's supposed to be a sonnet and it's in a contest. The reason why I am not is that you have entered an acrostic poetry contest and that's exactly what yours is. AN exceptional written one at that. If you want it to be a sonnet, play around with yours a bit more to get it into proper meter.

Good Luck in the contest.

Regards
Tia
