This is only the opinion and suggestions of the reviewer and it is still up to the author of this piece to consider this review as a corrective action or otherwise.

*Reading* THE POEM

A poem that brings out the kid in us all. While raking leaves is an autumn chore, there is a reward in the end if you don't mind raking more leaves. *Smile*

*Idea* WHAT I LIKED

I loved the memories that this poem conjured up. I remember growing up, bunching up leaves into a big pile just so I can jump in them. It's happy, dirty, memory. I tried to make a leaf pile for my son when he was that magical age to appreciate jumping in a leaf pile, but in SoCal, there's just not enough leaves.

*Star* STRUCTURE

This is a five stanza poem comprised of quatrains. The 1st and 3rd lines along with the 2nd and 4th lines rythme. The poem has a nice beat when read out loud.

*Star* MECHANICS

I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. Good use of WDC ML to increase the font and make it easier to read on WDC. The poem is easy to read.

*Star* DESCRIPTIONS

I liked: "He watched the leaves fall from the tree; their arcane dance was neglected." - It's a nice, warm visual of leaves on the ground fluttering around in a haphazard way. Good use of the word arcane here.

*Star* PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS

The title paints a nice emotional description/expectation of the poem, and the opening teases the reader to keep reading. This is a lighthearted poem that stirs up pleasant childhood memories well.
