She's set her mind free like fallen Autumn leaves Embracing mindfulness in the cool September air Reconnecting with her joyous inner child Easing up her jangled nerves, meditating away Negative voices in her head, actively listening to the Incessant rustling of red and gold leaves. The ambience so peaceful as she relishes her Yen to be free of mundane concerns. Hosanna! Awakening all senses; gradually resurrecting her Withered verve, cap-a-pie. Her hair blowing in the Autumn wind as she communes with ghosts of the past, Keeping steadfastly firm her spiritual... Equilibrium while blocking out external Noises threatening to perturb her Equanimity. In autumnal piece of mind as she... Drowns in a sea of unadulterated bliss.

This is wonderfully serene, Edward - as serene as watching a leaf drift to the ground. There is a "steadiness" in the experience you describe. Love the acrostic! One of my favorite forms. Congratulations! So glad to see this on the winners list.
