    Somehow this poem reminded me of Ben! You two share an amazing love for nature; you see things that a lot of people dont seem to notice.

    I love autumn, its my favorite season and this poem just portrays a beautiful image!

    Love it <3

    This is beautiful Maple. I love your title and how you have taken the two different seasons, but joined them together to make a metaphor for yourself. What a very lovely idea for a title, and a poem!

    I love the opening, the description of Spring, but then that cheeky little whisper of Autumn sneaks in there, beautifully done.

    The layout works very well with the word falling being spaced out as if it is literally falling, very eye catching.

    I like the seeds and seasons verse, to me it represents every aspect of life that was around you, every moment, person, lesson, journey which have all shaped you into the beautiful person you are. All this has made you.

    your ending is very powerful, to really claim that pride in connecting with nature, and being happy with what you are, and where you came from.

    Connecting yourself to nature is a talent that you are a goddess of!

    Love this little piece!

    The imagery here is gorgeous and a few lines that stood out to me were: "my eyes whispered autumn".... just the idea of that is something so enchanting, like there is more than meets the eye. The depth in our eyes is something so moving and contemplative. I also like how you speak softly and gently about the change in seasons, as that is something beautiful we all can witness. It's almost like we are living through one season, but there are always traces around us of the past season or the next one coming by.

    By the way, I'm in love with the title!
