Interesting perspective on the upcoming season. Hope the winter isn't too angry this year. We had enough snow to last us for two years last year. Nice use of personification in this poem. Keep on writing! Karen

Nice job, Sean. This is cute. I always think of squirrels when I think of autumn. I guess it's because of they are save-ed from winter hunger by their autumn labors. Reading your cinquain today has been a pleasure. Thank you for accepting the challenge. Lovingly, Dane Ann
