Autumn in its Own Sounds [E] Reflections on the sounds of Autumn. |
Hi jasperkasper , Welcome to Writing.Com! I happened upon your poem, and thought I'd leave a review. Overall Impression: I love nature, and Autumn's my favourite season, so I felt I had to check this out. I am glad that I did, as it's an enjoyable read. Each stanza covers a stage of the season, and it uses some nice imagery along the way. The poem describes some of what I love about the season - the colours of the trees, the crunchy leaves, and the cold - which is a perfect excuse for wearing warm, comfy clothes. It makes me want to curl up with a good read, possibly with a soft blanket. On the technical side of things, this poem reads well. It has an easy rhythm and flow. Well done! Suggestions: I do have a few suggestions, dear author. I hope that you will find them helpful. Stanza 1: ...leaves falling of... I think that 'of' should be off. Stanza 2: ...crunch under foot I think that 'under foot' should be one word: underfoot. General Suggestions: Punctuation in poetry is a personal choice, but I cannot help myself - I recommend it. When I read a poem, I find that it adds to the overall clarity and reading experience. If you choose to use full punctuation, I recommend allowing the capitalisation at the beginning of each line to depend upon the individual sentences within the piece. This would perfect the overall clarity and reading experience. My Rating: This is a gentle, pleasant poem. I found it to be an enjoyable read. I did have a few suggestions, but nothing major. Therefore, I will give this item a rating of 4.5 out of 5. Thank you for sharing your work. Write on! Kit My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
