Notes About The Poem

For double acrostic contest

Autumn Leaves




Amber, orange, red, gold  falL
Undergo change from green lifE
Touched by sweet decaying aromA
Undercurrent swirling dance of improV
Marauding chill in the breezE
Nimble corpses, once living thingS

I like your last two lines Crystol. I just read how you end up with 5 words per lines. Initially, I thought the same. The result is great!

Oh thank YOU! Funny thing...I wrote this for the double acrostic challenge and mistakenly thought it said, "max.5 words per line,.6 to 18 lines max." Oops! It was 5 word minimum... so I struggled to say precisely what was needed lol. Oh well, Since I worked so hard to shave it down, I'm going to go with it! Tysm! Xo
