Your rhymed couplets and rhythmic quatrains are a good way to wrap up the old year and ring in the new. The long shadows in your photograph reinforce the theme well. Best wishes in the contest and one last Merry Christmas- Joan

Comment from adewpearl
solid rhyming couplets
I like the message delivered through the raked leaves imagery
good consonance of L sounds in fallen leaves
a most thoughtful poem with excellent use of imagery

Comment from mrsmajor
Beautifully written, using rhymed quatrain verses.
I clearly understand the message, you did a great job of making it clear....Things are often only temporary, it may pay to look forward and not backward...I like that idea, makes a lot of sense...The picture was so appropriate for this piece..Thanks so much for sharing, something to think about for this time of year...
Enjoy a Wonderful Holiday in good Health.
Love and Hugs,
Victoria

Comment from Gungalo
Often we must rearrange
Things once touched by winds of change
No time for morbid sorrow
Look forward to tomorrow
Awesome quatrains Tom. They lead us forward into tomorrow where things are brighter yet.

The image is impeccable and reflects the transience of our life and the changes that we bring to the world hopefully always good things. Perhaps our footprints in the sand and our shadows in the gleaming snow will leave an indelible mark. Well done.

Comment from Capricorn30
Excellent!
Well-crafted quatrains of season's changes in relation to man's ever=changing passage of time;
Your thoughts parallel the imminent arrival of the new year--we leave behind yesterday's steps as we move into a new tomorrow.

This is a beautiful quatrain. The rhyme and meter are perfection and lift the reader up with the inspiring message of hope it conveys. You have certainly met the contest requirements and I am sure will be a strong contender for top honors. Thank you so much for sharing this with me.
