Lin, your poem captures the breathtaking beauty of an autumn scene with a vividness that is truly remarkable. The imagery of sunlight’s saffron fingers setting the hillsides ablaze and leaves falling like raindrops from ancient trees is both evocative and poignant. Your words create a stunning tableau that leaves the reader in awe of nature’s splendor. A truly beautiful piece! - Blessings, Daniel
