Bill,
This is a very poignant poem. Fall is such a beautiful yet ominous time of year.
I get the feeling of joy and "despair," as you say when reading your poem. All the fallen leaves are the dying or death you write about. Evergreens are much hardier trees than maple or oak, because they do not falter, even in extreme weather.
Excellent poem, Bill.
I hope your holiday goes well.
Good luck in all your writing,
Cindy

It's interesting when you take something lovely like autumn and put the very real subject of death in the scene. It's what we have to deal with in this crazy world. Best of luck in the contest.

You have nicely described autumn in this poem. I like how you end with "evergreens reign" as they are not affected by the "dying that is on display." Best wishes in the contest!

The scene is ambient here with vibrant golden colour and I feel you despair as the winter months soon follow and the cold snow will cover the scene, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

A very well-written ABC poem about Autumn that comes again. The evergreen trees are safe and remain their natural green color while many others trees lose their colored leaves for the winter cold.

I think this is a good entry for the ABC writing prompt.
This acrostic tells of fall and the emotions it evolks.
Well done and I wish you good luck with the contest.
