Dear Mystery Writer,

What a lovely and powerful metaphor for Autumn and the way she drives leaves (and people) into doing a different form of dance. This was fun - good luck!

Great use of personification of autumn and alliteration (feel-fever; clad cool) and assonance (cool, hues) in your brief poem. Best wishes in the contest!

I think this is a good entry for the Ode to Autumn writing prompt.
This tells of Autumn sashaying in a colorful verse.
Nicely done and I wish you good luck with the contest.

This is a fine thought for the 5-7-5 Poem entry. Sometime short thoughts can really hit the spot, touch our heart, and even be encouraging. Well done!

Hello there

You have painted in poetry a splendid 5=7=5= ode to autumn which expresses vibrancy, movement and colour.

My only thought was that your first line ends with 'in' when perhaps you could have written instead--


Autumnul sashays
clad in cool and vibrant hues...
feel her dance fever!

but hey... it ain't my poem... just saying.
Nonetheless... I think this is the one to hit the top spot :)


Very lovely ode to autumn and I wish you luck in the contest.

kind regards

tracey

A verywell-written autumn ode with her vibrant colors performing a feverish dance in celebration of the season and cooler breezes after the hot summer days.

I always imagine Autumn as a woman in a dress of gold and red leaves. Superb short verse poem for for the entry, mystery poet. Lovely illustration to crown your fine work. Six golden stars for you today.

Oh, yes! Can't you just see the changes, the tango has got to be Autumns dance! Bright, fast and sassy. You have really written an excellent Ode to Autumn, it's my favourite season. Not too hot, and not too cold, but so colourful! Good luck in the contest! :)) Sandra xx
