This is a well described poem, full of imagery for the reader which corresponds to the illustration of it. Reader can feel the approaching storm to come. Nicely penned. Marilyn

I love the color of the words and background you chose, it gives off a chilly feeling like the winds in November. Good luck in the contest! Neat little piece!

The imagery is amazing. I love the tip of the hat to jack frost very nice. I can see the leaves blanketing the ground. The leaves falling like ballerina's is great. This puts me right in the scene. Your punctuation helps to add so much weight truly a well done piece.

Fine imagery. I like the simile of ocean waves breaking. Good word choices. I like the alliteraiton of S in the opening line and consonance of S in lines two and three:
Fine simile here too (though mildly cliche, it works well as a combination):
Jack's tinted leaves fall and pirouette like ballerinas
Along the cold, tawny stage below
Fine alliteration of F and S in the closing lines:
Air has turned frigid, sun is fading, losing its warmth
Soon quilted white blankets will swaddle the ground
Atmospheric write. Well done.
Warmly, rd

Your simple title pulled me in. I had to read. Then I fell in love with your images. Some of my favorites are : "Slicing winds surge (the best line of all)," "Jack's tinted leaves," and "quilted white blankets will swaddle the ground."
I could have listed more. You have a poetic soul. You made me feel those November winds. I became emotionally attached to earth's cold, tawny stage. Your images are simply magnificent. That's what makes any free style poem good.
If reviewers read carefully at all, you should do well in the competition.
