Crimson, cerise, scarlet, and vermilion leaves die as Summer grieves. Without pity, brisk breezes denude the trees, voiding guarantees. Nature savors the essence of Fall's decay; a mushroom gourmet. Mother Earth prepares to spin Winter’s death shroud, no tears are allowed. Crimson, cerise, scarlet, and vermilion leaves disappear like thieves, and Autumn aggrieves.

Emile, one of my favorites (so far) in your book. I enjoy all the exotic colors and especially the couplet "Mother Earth prepares to spin Winter’s death shroud / no tears are allowed". The half-eleven is such an interesting form, and well utilized for this tale of nature's fierceness.

- A 1st grade poem, Emile :) - "Mother Earth prepares a spin Winters death shroud no tears are allowed "... whoever does not shed tears, hiding their feelings ... I think the autumn is sad ... all the beautiful around us dies ... - Luck in the contest :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

Good luck in the contest, my friend. This part hops out and says "hello" to me personally: "death voids guarantees." Your poetry always resonates with pureness and truth, Emile.
