Autumn

autumn-dressed in pretty colors of red, yellow and orange cool breezes-cover the pumpkins at night like a blanket the sun-now has less time to play outside autumn-is my favorite time of the year

You leave us in no doubt, Paula, that autumn is your favourite month! Autumn's dress is such a special one...we can't find that in a shop window :) Regards // paul

I really like this. I feel confused to see lots of poets writing more than one line for the monoku contest. Did I miss something in the rules? Was this for the contest?
