This is an excellent minute poem for the contest with wonderful imagery
and very good rhymes and syllables,
plus a theme that will appeal to everyone on fanstory.
One of the few entries I read with excellent iambic meter.
Autumn is my favorite season, unfortunately, it's follow by winter. :)
Excellent minute poem!
Best wishes in the contest.

Comment from Mary Vigasin
I love fall but also your poem perfectly describes my feeling about fall.
It captures by your great descriptions is how fall now cools as us off and the heat of summer is finally behind us.
Good Luck in the contest.

Good afternoon.
Oh, what a lovely little poem this is.
You start with this line--
A touch of Autumn brushed my cheek--how could anyone read that first line and not be captivated at once!
You describe here in you 'Minute poem' how the start of autumn begings to quell the flame of summer and continue towards the end to say --
Now sweet salvation's cooling kiss-- :)
A fine poem, Yvette.
kind regards

-Very nice image and
presentation.
-You wrote a good minute
poem that meets all requirements.
-I like the progression of thoughts
as autumn begins, the dog days of
summer have passed, followed by
a good concluding verse.
-Good luck in the contest.

A lovely an appropriate Minute poem, Yvette!! I enjoyed the seasonal references and got the vast appreciation for cooler days after summertime. Also, maybe these cool breezes will push these hurricanes away from our shores!! Great job with the meter and rhyme choices!!

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
An ambient Autumnal write and you brought the scenes here in your fine minute. Line three is not iambic though and would need to be adjusted for the contest, perhaps "to quell the flames" would work better, love Dolly x

Thank you very much for the catch here, Dolly. The error in meter has been corrected. 8-)
