The imagery created by this haiku works effectively.
Perhaps a picture of autumn leaves might add to the visual presentation.
Well done.
An enjoyable read.

An interesting haiku poem you have here. It is simplistic and yet thought-provoking. I suspect all leaves turn brown eventually. I am also impressed that you wrote your haiku as a "practice poem". Best wishes.

A good attempt, I was wondering, politely, if you know what a satori line is? It's generally a line which provides a surprising, but relevant connecting line, and the last like, something like.
The trees in autumn,
Remove their coats,
And clothe the ground.
But well done, my friend, blessings Roy

Congratulation on stepping out of your comfort zone and practicing a haiku. It is a fun from to experience.
Suggestions: You might want to make the first two lines into one sentence.
Try not to use a word more than once.
Great effort

I commend you for entering the contest--even if you aren't familiar with haiku. You gave it a good try. What I notice is your lines read like one big sentence. I was DQed in a contest for that reason.
May I suggest ~
be sure lines 1 & 2 connect
then use line 3 to add something one might see or do after reading those--the 'aha' moment--easier said than done.
Autumn is here [ autumn arrives ]
leaves have fallen [ leaves twirl and swirl in the air ~ ]
The leaves are brown [ ground reflects patchwork colors ]
I'm rate 5 becausse I believe you will revisde and you gave an honesst attempt. No capitals in haiku unless proper names, present tense is best, and use a dash after line 2 for emphsis.
Best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan

I know you are practicing Haiku. It sounds right and the syllable counts are correct (less than 17 syllables).
The last line is usually a Satori.
I would suggest the following for the last line:
a golden season

A simple Autumn Haiku. We'll written with good imagery. One of my favourite seasons along with Spring. A picture accompanying your work would have been nice. Stay safe Franky

This is a quick descriptions of Autumn (Fall). I hope you also see red and yellow leaves too. Though it does seem that after a while on the ground they all look about the same color.
Keep writing and stay healthy

Very well written. Full thoughts conveyed with three short lines. I could see the brown leaves and I got a vision of Fall. It is difficult to bring complete thoughts and feel in such a short poem. You did a great job at this difficult task. Thanks for sharing!
