The repetition of the words are very effective. The senses at this time of year are accentuated with the delights of the season. Good use of rhyming and imagery. Enjoyable read Faye

You've got the rhythm and it flows nicely.It's understandable and creates an emotional response. I didn't spot any typos My personal opinion is that there's a little too much repetition; no offense intended. Good luck with it and all your future writings. Jim

A fine thing to write about...And I must say I like it
But I do not agree with you on the category of the poem.
It think it's rather humorous....Maybe I am wrong

I admired the repetition and rhythm that reinforced the scene you captured. It is lovely to be reminded of the autumn colors of my recent trip by both your words and photograph. I admired your title for this Anaphoric, rhymed quatrains. Here's to peace- Joan

The poetry style of anaphoric quatrains does intensify the emotion which the words portray.
Attention is highlighted on the word-"feel" and that is exactly what is portrayed-feelings about the sights seen
on a walk in fall.:-) Shirley

Yet another great poem about family walk and autumn. The simplicity of the words and stanza creates a great impact. Well done, Tom.

I like the imagery. I can feel the fresh air across my face. I can see the colors and beauty of the scene. I feel the appreciation of the gift of seasons from God who made them. The photo is appealing and significant to the message. thanks

I found this poem very refreshing - like a cool autumn breeze. The meter and rhyme are spot-on, and the facets of each stanza shine in their own ways yet present a complete picture. Very well composed. Thank you for sharing!

You are right about the repeated phrases. I like them. They served this poem well. I like the alternating take/feel/take feel. I like the rhyme scheme. It is super that you are able to include your own picture with your work. I see nothing to change. I like "take a son or daughter" and "feel the peace you're under." Good job and thanks for sharing.
