I like your haiku very much.
"Cozy chilly" is interesting...I would think these concepts nearly opposites but it works for me. I especially like the last line and the accompanying artwork.

    Thank you. I love a cold room, windows open even, curling up with a big quilt, and reading. I love coziness, and while I love summer, it is not cozy!

You did a great job with your contest entry, Mystery Writer. Your syllable count per line is correct, the image choice is perfect, and your words create great imagery. I could see everything relating to the arrival of the cold.
Best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan

A very well-written 5-7-5 for November when the Northern hemisphere preparing for the winter while the ground us covered in colorful leaves and the ducks get ready to fly south.

The Speaker here obviously likes this time of year if chilly air can be called "cozy." The scene of colored leaves on the ground and geese departing is easily visualized. Rod

You poem left me cold...in a very good way! Nice imagery, and the last line pulls you right back to reality with the noisy geese. The artwork is perfect. Good Luck
