September Falls Poetry Contest
Sponsored by: Andrea Dietrich

Summer is over; kids are back at school; Everyone is thankful for the cool nights. People are beginning to drain their pool, Thankful, there are no more mosquito bites. Each day is shorter than the day before, Moving closer to Autumn's color change. But the forest is still green at its core; Even though the lack of songbirds seems strange. Red tinges are spreading amongst the leaves; Fall is now entering its start-up stage. And people are unrolling their shirtsleeves, Like they're getting ready to flip the page. Little things keep September in my heart; Such as the fact Fall is about to start.

Dear Emile, my poet friend, you capture the transition of summer to fall with the beauty of September portrayed with your signature poetic finesse. Your attention to natural, sensory details like "the lack of songbirds seems strange" (so true towards the end of summer..) gives your poem extra depth. Congratulations for your success in Andrea's contest. warmest wishes.. ~Susan

I sure enjoyed your acrostic and how you used sonnet rhyme pattern for it. A very nice ending on this one. Congrats in my contest.

Hello Emile, I enjoyed this poem. Oh autumn has already begun. I have seen some trees changing colours. Yes the children are back at school. I remember collecting leaves for school then to tape on the window in the classroom. My friend. Darlene enjoy your weekend.
