I enjoyed reading your poem. It flows well and I would have liked to see an artwork choice, but your poem does well standing alone without it. Best wishes!

    That's so nice to hear. I agree about the artwork and usually chose a cool font, colors and artwork, but many here criticize that and say, "the words should stand alone". :))

Oh my goodness, this is excellent. You've described with haiku that horrible feeling of being left on the outside while merriment and life is happening inside.

So much said, in so few words.

Terrific and I wish you all the best in the contest.

    I worry that folks won't understand my lengthy pieces so, needless to say, I always have my doubts with these. I'm so pleased you have this on the money. A relieved smile. I was thinking of rich/poor as well along with the more general feeling you describe perfectly. Wow, what more could I ask for. Thank you so much. :))

Excellent haiku form that creates a clear scene of nature. I enjoyed reading this poem, love to think of Autumn colors and leaves this time of year. Your poetic form is smooth and love the line falls on warm greenhouse.

I liked this haiku and I thought that it was well written. I liked the imagery of the falling autumn leaf, preparing the way for winter to come. A well written piece, good luck in the contest...Jacob
