Don't Get Discouraged until you build up the Courage.


   Reds, oranges, and yellows outline the skyline. The autumn leaves fall gently towards the ground only to be stepped on over and over again. Instead of being admired by all they are taken for granted. So when autumn leaves and the winter comes near the ice and the chill are feared. the leaves will die and ground will break. and what from this do we take? we stay inside to save our pride and to this it's seems like a mistake. You may find this poem confusing but you will understand once autumn leaves.

Also, I forgot to mention - I'm sure you did this on purpose, but I find the metaphorical use of autumn "leaving" funny...ha. Leaves.

I've been there along with many others and I was so surprised by the ending. Great conclusion. It really shows that everyone is svaed if they allow someone to do so.

I feel there may be some minor grammatical errors in your writing, but it may be my poor comprehension. However, this poem shakes the average view on the leaves of faithful Autumn. I love this season, for the colors are extraordinary, yet your poem (or vignette, perhaps) reminds us so much on how we can take this wonderful time for granted.
